Fly In My Soup Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 For extreme off-roading with more “Get me out of here!” grip, six wheels are better than four. See what new territory you can explore with the 1/10 scale Axial® UMG 6X6 RTR. Built around the proven SCX10™ II chassis, the UMG 6X6 delivers class-leading RC crawler performance in a convenient, ready-to-run package — only a battery and charger are required. The military-style body captures the look of full-size 6X6 trucks, and scale features include 1.9 military-spec wheels and tires, a working spare, and built-in mounting positions for front and rear LED lights (four LED lights included!). The performance on dirt and gravel trails does thrilling justice to the vehicle’s full-scale, all-terrain inspiration. Waterproof electronics keep the action alive over snow, mud, and more. With its durable SCX10 II metal-geared transmission, rugged AR44™ axles, full ball bearings, and more, the Axial® SCX10 II UMG 6X6 lets even first-time RC drivers keep on going when the going gets tough! MILITARY STYLE CREW CAB BODY WITH REAR CAGE The ready-to-run Axial® SCX10™ II UMG 6X6 delivers realistic performance with an authentic military feel — enhanced by this scale crew cab body with hinged rear cage for quick chassis access. The aggressive approach angle created by the vehicle’s front end design enables the UMG 6X6 to take on steep inclines, and the long 17.3” (439mm) wheelbase helps with agility in challenging terrain. TANDEM REAR AXLES Tandem AR44™ rear axles with a high pinion design provide the toughness needed for rugged off-road trails. Universal joint axles, helical cut internal gears and high-quality bearings are all standard equipment. The ring gear/locker is a single-unit piece made of strong sintered metal, and the pinion is CNC cut for durability. EXTENDED FRAME RAILS The UMG 6X6 includes the same frame rails from the original SCX10™ II chassis design, along with two additional steel c-channel frame rail extensions, each measuring 139mm in length. The frame rails are joined on either side by a rear link mount, which give the truck the length it needs to accommodate an additional rear axle. TWO-PIECE BED By creating the bed from two pieces rather than as a single piece, Axial® engineers have been able to give it much greater depth. Two working LED tail lights with red plastic tail light lenses are mounted in the rear of the bed. ADJUSTABLE COILOVER SHOCKS Made to tight tolerances, the included coilover shocks feature precision-machined pistons for smooth action throughout their range of travel, delivering the crawling performance you expect from an Axial® vehicle. CHASSIS MOUNTED SERVO DESIGN (CMS) Just as a full-size truck has its steering box located on the frame, Axial places the mounting location for your servo on the chassis. The front suspension provides the correct steering geometry with virtually no bump steer. MIL-SPEC WHEELS AND TIRES Six 1.9 MT45 tires, molded in Axial® S30 compound rubber, keep the UMG 6X6 crawler on course and climbing difficult terrain with ease. Their big block, symmetrical tread pattern provides plenty of grip to get over steep obstacles. The tires are mounted on injection-molded, 3-piece, MW19 beadlock wheels that offer the perfect scale look for a military build. A functional spare tire is also included. REAR CAGE HINGE SYSTEM The rear cage has a spare tire carrier plus a hinge system that offers easy access to on-board components. You can quickly reach the battery and chassis by removing just two body clips hidden under the cab. METAL SERVO HORN The UMG 6x6 features a metal servo horn for durability and sharper steering feel. WB8 HD WILDBOAR™ DRIVESHAFTS WB8 HD Wildboar™ front and rear driveshafts feature a larger diameter cross pin (2x11mm) along with an M4 Screw Shaft (2mm hex drive) for greater strength. A center splined slider floats between each end and has added material to reduce flex and fatigue. MOLDED PLASTIC GRILLE AND SCALE DETAILS The realistic molded plastic grille features details such as a radiator, an embossed Axial® logo, two clear marker lenses, and two headlight lenses. Additional scale details can be found throughout the body for an authentic military look. LED LIGHTS FRONT AND REAR For realism that continues when the sun goes down, outfit your UMG 6X6 with lights — a total of eight mounting locations are built-in for easy LED installation. Four LED lights are included - two white LED lights are mounted in the front bumper, and two red LED tail lights are mounted in the rear of the bed. NOTE: Additional LED lights sold separately. SPEKTRUM™ STX2® TRANSMITTER The STX2 2-channel radio system offers many features of higher-end 2.4GHz radio systems like throttle/steering reversing, throttle/steering travel adjust & throttle limiting. • Built-in 3-position throttle limiter • Steering & throttle rate & trim adjustments with throttle and steering reversing • FHSS 2.4GHz protocol offers extended range and interference free performance SPEKTRUM™ SRX200 RECEIVER The SRX200 is a 2 channel 2.4GHz receiver that operates on the FHSS modulation. It is conformal coated to help prevent damage from water, dust and other elements. Features an extra-long antenna lead for easy and effective antenna placement. AX10™ TRANSMISSION - ALL METAL GEARS The ultra compact transmission allows for a wide range of gearing choices. The overall ratio can be adjusted using different pinion and spur gear choices allowing super high speed or competition level crawling speed. The new transmission housing design still retains the basic function of the original transmission but in a new more scale looking case. • Final drive ratio (FDR) 42.00 – Original SCX10 was 33.06 • All metal internal gears! • Scale looks – silver color looks like cast aluminum • Better mounting points at the base of the transmission – no more stripped screws! 35T BRUSHED MOTOR, WATER RESISTANT Providing an even balance of speed and crawling, the 35-turn brushed motor features a worry-free design with an integrated cooling fan allowing for extended periods of use. Easy operation: no tuning, no fuel, and no loud exhaust noise. Just plug 'n' go! SPEKTRUM™ S605 SERVO The Spektrum S605 servo offers 161 oz-in of steering torque, a metal case for strength, and it’s waterproof for extra protection against the elements. • Type: Analog • Torque: 161 oz-in @ 6.0V • Speed: .24 sec/60 degrees @ 6.0V • Bushing Or Bearing: Bushing • Connector Type: Z-connector • Gear Type: Nylon • Gear Material: Plastic DYNAMITE® AE-5L ESC W/ DRAG BRAKE, WATERPROOF The Dynamite AE-5L ESC is 3S LiPo capable yet easily switched “in the field” between LiPo and NiMH battery types with a simple jumper – no more complex procedures. • LED Light controller built-in with dual LED outputs for headlights/taillights. • Four LED lights included (two white, two red) • Convenient IC3™ plug lead. • Jumper 1 provides a simple plug and play choice between LiPo or NiMH. • Jumper 2 switches Drag Brake settings. • Waterproof design with IC3™ plug / laser etched heat sink View full news article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m4inbrain Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 (edited) 10 hours ago, Oh How Original said: @m4inbrain Called it. 450 USD for the RTR in a few places (RRP 499 USD), so probably £449 as RTR. Would've preferred metal body shocks at that price, but admittedly i'm very tempted. I'll give it a few though, in hope that there's a kit coming. Part number for the RTR is AXI03002 for the googlers. edit: and here's a video. And in regards to the kit: Take that as you will, i'm gonna call "yes".

Pistonhead Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 I was all over the SSD Trail King, but if there’s a kit on the way, this will change that lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m4inbrain Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 £449, there you go. I'm not entirely sure how much of a bargain it is, but when talking to OHO a few weeks back we were talking about this thing, i kinda really want one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh How Original Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 I'm not sold, I hate the whole back wheels lifting up when going over tiny objects, it needs much longer shocks but set in about 70% droop IMO, would improve any driving and videoing.
