Big Red Enduro ‘Mog

Mike built Big Red specifically to be tested and proven at The Fix 12hr endurance challenge hosted by the Recon G6. Mike’s Axial Vanquish SCX-based Unimog features custom made inner fenders and a detailed interior which even includes an FPV camera and a scale instrument panel. Ample power and control is delivered the Castle motor system and Powerhobby LiPo, and he reports that it is super stable and fun to drive with the VS4 chassis conversion kit. A Unimog must have portal axles; the durable Deadloc racing adapter kit was the perfect choice, and all of the themScale accessories paired with the emergency flashing light kit from My Trick RC make it really stand out in a crowd.
