Axial UMG Kit - Building & Fitting The Body

[@RCBirds]

Great work Derek. Can't await to see it run

[@hollyhillrc]

Thank you very much Dirk 🙂👍🏼👍🏼

Nice it's finally finished. I do not know why they stopped making it, they could have put this body on a later chassis.

[@hollyhillrc]

I agree Mal. It was very popular and I think it's the only Axial kit that doesn't have a RTR version? Very strange.

Wow just wow. I'm so glad it's finished Derek. You done a fantastic job and I'm glad it went to a home I now know was the best place for it. I'm gutted I sold it but glad to see it finished. My mk-07 has similar fixings for the body on rear hinge and front locators. Keep up the good work bud.

Hi Sean. Thank you very much my friend.

[@rc-dom-uk]

looks awesome. i really like this rig , shame axial seem to have abandoned so many unique cars like this and the ford f50 as well as the old wraiths , etc

[@hollyhillrc]

Hello mate. Thanks very much. You probably know I'm an Axial fanboy but I think the brand started to go downhill when Horizon Hobby took over in 2018 as far as their sales technique is concerned. They still produce good RC's but they discontinue them so quickly now which is something I just don't understand. Even my SCX10iii Early Ford Bronco has been discontinued and that was only released 3 years ago! All it does is create over inflated second hand prices which doesn't benefit Horizon in any way as far as I can tell? The 2.2 Wraith was probably among Axial's best selling RC's before Horizon took over and replaced it with the Bomber, and Horizons 1.9 Wraith looked like a Wraith Spawn and Deadbolt mash up which I didn't understand at the time. But why they discontinued the UMG 4X4 will baffle me for the rest of my days because it's quite unique in the RC world, and it's one of the only Axial kits that wasn't also released as an RTR which was a massive mistake in my humble opinion. Rant Over 😁👍🏼👍🏼

@@hollyhillrc i agree mate . they use to have a huge range now it’s mostly jeeps . The sad thing is i just don’t really see much of their stuff i actually want . I wish i had got that ford f50 agmonst others but oh well 🤷‍♂️
