Inspecting the Tamiya 57843 Unimog 406 U900

The Tamiya 57843 Unimog 406 Series U900 on the CC-01 platform recreates the functional charm of the original Unimog for RC enthusiasts. Rooted in the Mercedes-Benz design of the 1960s, this scale model focuses on durability and off-road ability so you can enjoy both trail sessions and display use.

Drive and Chassis Details

This RTR features a dependable 4WD setup designed to handle mixed surfaces. Its CC-01 chassis layout combines independent front suspension with a solid rear axle for predictable handling. Oil-filled shock absorbers tame rough sections and improve wheel contact over uneven ground.

Scale Looks and Running Gear

The model is supplied with a pre-painted body that reproduces the Unimog silhouette, and integrated LED lights simulate authentic head and tail illumination. Rubber pin spike tyres deliver solid grip on loose and firm surfaces, while the cab detailing adds to the scale appeal.

Practical Appeal for Modellers

Whether used for casual trail runs or kept as part of a scale fleet, the Tamiya Unimog balances realistic styling with user-friendly running characteristics. Its rugged build and simple servicing make it a sensible choice for hobbyists who value both looks and usability.
