Is 4WS or DIG allowed in a Recon G6?

One spot said "NO rear steer and NO dig. A vehicle may have 4x4 or 2x4 capabilities."

and another said "- All classes are allowed to use dig and 4 wheel steering on their scalers if they choose. "


So your guess is as good as mine.

I know that the Wraith and SCX10 models are more ideal for a G6, but do many AX10 models show up? I haven't really seen them in event coverage.

Not many... I have a friend who's brother attended a G6 with a AX10 and it worked just fine, with a different body. but the axles are worm gear driven and got hot from what I heard.

Ax10 should have axial axles. No issues in the G6 as long as it meets scale requirements.

There have been some. Drivers attach a scale body and add scale items. Some throw in a 35t motor. At a RECON G6, a small time penalty would be assessed, but there are time bonuses available, too.

All good info to know. Thanks guys.

Eventually I'd like to get a couple SCX10 kits for my wife and I to build. Then plan a camping trip that would coincide with a G6 event.

Im thinking of building a Wrexo(with the EXO Terra frame)Are IFS rigs allowed since the Yeti has been released.It will be all Axial but not really "scale" like a rail framed truck?I had several of my buddies attend the latest G6 in Ark and came back telling me about and now im hooked

Yes sir. Build it & drive it. A stage in the RECON G6 will test your rigs capabilities for sure.

Yes & trailer. Just because it's not listed as a class, if you want to run it, let us know, if you have 5 or more in the class, you can earn a driver of the day award.

Do work, 6x6 drivers!

Yes Sir, you did! Mad driving skills & a very capable Axial scx10!

I am always trying to drive rc with my Nor-Cal Family every chance I get. So don't be surprised when I show up in the RG6 Tercel to "Do Work"!
