- Realistic RC models of race trucks that took part in the famous Dakar Rally racing in loose sand - you'll see models of many famous vehicles including Kamaz, Ginaf, Iveco, Tatra, Liaz, MAN and Perlini.
This race was organized by a local RC club on a beautiful beach in very hot weather. The event lasted for the whole day, the trucks had to cope with many stages in the sand and surrounding forest.
Of course, reliability was the primary key to win this event. Many trucks had to be repaired after each stage.
This video shows the first stage, where the trucks run through the course one at a time.
Some of the trucks got stuck and had to be rescued.
Rescuing has exact rules - e.g. digging sand is only allowed with a realistic showel, i.e. a tea spoon :) and drivers are not allowed to help the stuck truck by hands.

I had no idea this existed. These trucks are fabulous! Well done to all the builders.
Thank you for your nice comment, I'll forward it to them ;)
Really great truck , very good video !!
Thank you :) .
Wow, a lot of Action with these Scale Trucks. I like it.
Thank you ;). That was just the first stage of one race. There was ca. 8 stages per race and 4 racer per year. Have a look at the page linked in description ;)
This is wonderful. Very entertaining to watch.
great models!!!
thank you :)
Excellent stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you :)
That was very very neat to watch! Great video.
Thank you :)
Great video, thanks for sharing you should do some build and setup videos for people looking to get into this
:) thank you, please feel free to look here to gain some inspiration:

Only wish i could read it. Lol
Just epic. Sub'd
thanks and welcome ;)
GREAT VIDEO!!!! The trucks look great and the drivers did a great job as well
Thanks 👍
very nice Video from the RC Rally Dakar :-)
Thank you :)
awesome, best rc video I've seen for a long time. I really wanna be there sooooo bad. all the rigs were amazing. I'd love to know what chassis they were all using.
super video guy's. 😀 👍 👍 👍 👍
Thank you, Mike :) .
As I've already commented elsewhere, there are several racing events throughout the year. Season 2017 is already almost set. The event lasts for the whole day (i.e. 24hours :) ) with many day and night stages. The events are open to new competitors if their trucks comply with the rules. Spectators are always welcome ;) . Official page: www.rctr.estranky.cz
Most of the trucks use some heavily modified stock RC components, many details can be found: facebook.com/rctruckracing
Here is the beautiful historical white LIAZ: facebook.com/rcliaz
The black Tatra was the only real Tatra in the field (uses realistic Tatra backbone chassis with swinging axles) and you may know it from some of my other videos
You've already seen the red Ginaf and yellow LIAZ doing some fancy exhibition here ;) : th-cam.com/video/EtNulal32Aw/w-d-xo.html
wow .I never knew this existed before but I really like the dakar rally and those man trucks.
This was great to see.I always wanted one somehow but I cant make those bodies.When you see those trucks do they always have some kind of custom axles on their trucks?
Epic Models, very realistic Rally Stage!! I have never seen European Rally Trucks in R/C before - ANYWHERE. Just like the real counterparts, they're tall, lanky, top heavy - and look like they *shouldn't* work - but DO work, brilliantly!
I'm in Arizona, US. We've got lots of sand, rocky terrain, and land features to make our own exciting version of the Dakar Rally here. Sounds like something that I need to create here!! Believe it or not, European Rally Trucks and Truck Road Racing are very popular to watch in the United States! 😎👍👍
It's exciting, and we have NOTHING like it here. The closest is the Baja 1000, but the vehicles are quite different.
Most of us know how to acquire 4x4 chassis - except ones like the Tatra "Backbone" type.....
Where did you get the Bodies? ? 😲 They're stunning, and true to Scale.
Last question, 1/10th or 1/14th Scale?

Thanks, Murphy. It's interesting to read such a nice comment coming from the opposite side of the world ;) .
These models of Dakar race trucks can be generally divided into 2 categories:
1. ultra-lights (that what we call them ;) ) - these use just stock chassis from an existing RC truck and have a very light bodywork.
2. absolutely realistic models including chassis (not only the specific backbone chassis of Tatra, but also standard rectangular frames of the russian Kamaz etc.)
Tatra chassis must be built from scratch, there is no vendor producing anything even remotely related. That includes the tube, spur differentials, final drive cases, swinging axles, suspension, gearboxes etc.
Basically, here in the Czech Republic model builders are very skilled, so many of us just make also the bodywork on our own.
Scale of our trucks is 1/14 or 1/13.5
You REALLY know your stuff! *SCRATCHBUILD* a Tatra Backbone Chassis? 😲 Now THAT takes some skill. There is actually one manufacturer, selling an 8x8 Tatra Truck here in the Colonies, 1/14th Scale..... Very impressive but $2400.00US!! 😯 (average price we pay for off-road Truck is $300)
VERY few Americans are creative anymore. They want everything Ready to Run these days... 😕 It's sad really, because we used to MAKE at least half of the World's items - before the current generation was born.
My friend and I, both in our 50's have NEVER bought a RTR RC vehicle! We're proud of that. We are both Retired Auto Mechanics, and prefer working a box of parts into something nice. My friend is more of the scratchbuilder. He's also got a BEAUTIFUL Model Railway! He has scratchbuilt nearly half of the bodies on his 1/10th Scale Rigs.
I will try doing one, one of these days....
Our current project is to take two of the HG P402 Roller Chassis kits (CHEAP, plastic frame R/C 4x4 kit), and actually turn them into something GOOD!
(Pray for us!)
Currently, my friend is in bad shape. He is Disabled. He just lost his oldest daughter (28), and the costs over the past few months, broke him and his family. I've been trying to help them on my own, but I don't bring in enough money.
I set up a PayPal donation account in his name, and asked everyone he knew and his TH-cam followers to help. The site even has automatic currency exchange conversion, and no fees.....
*Nobody* helped. He only needs $417.00 more, so they don't get Evicted. So, after I get them back on their feet again, it's time to get to work on these! Can't wait!

You guys should do Truck Trials as well!!! 👍👍
We do, even though our 1/14 models are a bit brittle (and it would be a shame to damage them), some of our off-road driving conditions may be considered truck-trial :) .
However, our friends build Tatra models in scale 1/10 with an almost indestructible all-steel chassis especially for RC-truck-trial races (thus some of their models do not look as realistic as ours). You can even put a small child on the platform and drive him/her around ;) : th-cam.com/users/edit?o=U&video_id=SSLeCWvSlDM
I know exactly what you are talking about - the same situation is in CZ now. Those of us, who rose up in communism, had to learn to build things on their own, not only RC models. But in the 90's everything changed, people are no longer forced to be creative and invent things from scratch. It is good and bad at the same time ...
HG P402: that's an interesting item - I got this from a Chinese retailer and I really didn't expect it to last long. After a few runs I really fell in love with this car - even though it is plastic with only a few metal parts - WHEN DRIVEN LIKE A REAL Mercedes-Benz G-Klasse you can do it no harm in any conditions. It is even extremely capable in snow:

Sorry about your friend and family - we wish them all the best to get on their feet again soon!
MAMMOET kills it!
yeah, this model is very fast and reliable.
Very nice events and videos. I have never seen such a truck sold in Japan, but are these kits sold? Or is it a self-made track?
All of these are self-made trucks, but many of them use standard components (axles, drivetrain etc.)
@@cwx37
Thank you for reply. After all, the best track is the best way to self-made.
super video ako vždy
Děkuji :)
I love these rigs !! 🤩 what’s the base and power system
What’s the design on the green green n black and where do I get one ! 16:50 !
Cool.. which brand RC cars and models are they? I'm not into trucks but seeing these baby's run the track I might consider :)
:) thanks. These models are custom built using some stock chassis components, some of them even have a completely custom built chassis. However, the guys racing in these events sometimes build trucks for other people too, you may try to contact them via webpage in this video's description.
Are these all custom builds? I've never seen a Dakar replica kit. They look awesome!
Yes, most of them are custom builds. But many of the trucks use standard stock RC components (axles, suspension etc.)
Thanks for the reply. Very cool stuff.
thanks, you're welcome ;)
Are all those trucks custom builds?
Yes, but using chassis components from factory produced RC cars and trucks ... except for the black Tatra - she's completely hand-built.
I think they need more power
:) their electric motors produce enough power - the key to win is reliability in hot weather...
wooowww :(
i want one :'(
build one and come racing with us :)
why are all the trucks modeled after dump trucks?
All of these models are built according to real vehicles, that competed in the famous Dakar rally
Это вы турнир проводите
Круто
Thanks, but I was just the cameraman recording my friend's event. They conduct a whole series of these races throughout the season.
Nobody helped buddy in the vw beetle?
They did, but I missed it ;)
Máte pánové nějaké internetové forum, kde probíráte technické věci z modelu??
www.rctr.estranky.cz/
Díky.
I missed the "rc" word at first 🤣
:)
Rád bych nějaký závod vyděl na živo a prohlédl vaše kamiony
tak mrkněte na stránky u popisu videa ;)
18.3. je tuším něco v Sosnové
que chassis son estos camiones?
Where can I buy one of the rc?
These are hand built unique pieces. However, the guys at www.rctr.estranky.cz/ may build one for you.
Poor dudes bike at 5:15 got mucked rip
:) yes ... btw. there were penalty points for this
cwx37 that sucks
お金がかからなそうなダカールラリーだ🤔
:) good point. Its a Dakar Rally, that does not cost "that much" money compared to the real adventure. But the RC truck teams also build and fix their race equippment, the races have fixed rules and generally it's a great fun.
Play speed 05x
11:22 he cheated...lol
yes, however he had so much trouble in this stage, that he was allowed to help his truck with his hand this time ;)
moc moc
:), super, děkuji
looks like unworking suspension.... No realistic at all. Good model, but all moves of the wheels looks like 5$ toys
th-cam.com/video/A_VxZdn6FW8/w-d-xo.html thats what i mean :)
Actually you are right - many of these race trucks are using too stiff suspension (without shock absorbers).
Only the red GINAF has well balanced suspension. Very few more models behave smoothly over bumps.
The black Tatra (actually the only real Tatra in the field with backbone chassis) also behaves well, but is too heavy for this loose sand. Moreover, it didn't have a powerfull motor at that time. Now it "flies" off-road :) .
