MN98 1:12 Scale 4WD RC Rock Crawler | Camel Trophy Style Off-Road Remote Control SUV
An elite, historically inspired 1:12 hobby-grade full-time 4WD trail rock crawler replicating the legendary endurance rigs of the Camel Trophy expeditions. Outfitted with an authentic sand-yellow overland hardbody, a high-torque mechanical transmission, a structural roof luggage basket, and full proportional steering via a 2.4GHz anti-interference radio link, this Ready-to-Run (RTR) vehicle is engineered to dominate rugged trails. A premier choice for off-road hobbyists, technical scale collectors, and expedition enthusiasts across India.
Product Details
The MN98 sets a magnificent new standard for scale adventure modeling, shrinking the iconic spirit of classic global overland expeditions into a highly durable 1:12 scale frame. Finished in the traditional high-visibility sand-yellow expedition scheme, this vehicle features an injection-molded ladder chassis frame designed to handle intense chassis twisting over uneven surfaces. Driven by a full-time 4x4 mechanical powertrain and a high-torque brushed motor, the MN98 interprets precise acceleration lines and microscopic steering adjustments smoothly through its 2.4GHz digital link, making it incredibly easy to pilot through loose sand beds, dense backyard gravel, garden dirt paths, and technical indoor obstacle layouts.
Key Features :
Iconic Camel Trophy Styling: Finished in an authentic sand-yellow expedition livery, featuring a rugged hardbody shell complete with a detailed roof luggage rack, protective front brush guards, dual snorkel provisions, and scale decals.
Full-Time 4WD Expedition Powertrain: Engineered with locked front and rear solid differentials that deliver uniform axle torque to all four high-traction mud tires for constant climbing traction.
Proportional 2.4GHz Digital System: Outfitted with an anti-interference multi-channel transmitter that reads linear inputs for smooth speed modulation and fine steering corrections.
Independent Articulated Suspension: Balanced with long-travel coil-sprung suspension links that flex effortlessly to keep all four wheels planted firmly on uneven terrain gradients.

Frequently ask questions :
Q1: Is the MN98 built for high-speed racing or low-speed technical rock crawling?
Ans: The MN98 is custom-engineered as a scale trail crawler, focusing on raw low-end torque rather than extreme speed. It features a high-ratio reduction gearbox designed to crawl over difficult obstacles, stones, and steep backyard inclines smoothly without spinning out or losing control.
Q2: Can this Camel Trophy style SUV handle outdoor dirt paths, grass, and damp environments?
Ans: Yes, the combination of its locked 4WD layout, high ground clearance, and aggressive deep-tread tires allows it to confidently traverse dirt paths, gravel trails, and lawn grass. To protect the motor bearings and electronic receiver boards, avoid driving it through deep standing puddles or rain.
Q3: Does this model come fully assembled, and what additional items do I need to start driving?
Ans: This is a comprehensive Ready-to-Run (RTR) package. The vehicle comes 100% factory-assembled and includes the matching 2.4GHz remote controller, a rechargeable lithium battery pack, and a safe USB balance charging cable. You only need to place standard batteries into the handheld remote controller to start driving.
Q4: What is the structural purpose of the large roof rack on the MN98?
Ans: The roof luggage basket is a highly detailed scale replica modeled after real expedition support rigs. While it adds incredible realism, it is also fully functional for scale hobbyists who want to secure miniature recovery gear, sand ladders, scale storage boxes, or spare tires to customize their overland truck.
