UDIRC Toyota Land Cruiser LC79 UCX1801PRO 1/18 4WD Brushless Crawler RTR

The UDIRC UCX1801PRO is an officially licensed Toyota Land Cruiser LC79 1/18 scale 4WD brushless RC crawler, combining highly detailed scale styling with an impressive hobby-grade off-road platform.

Designed to recreate the rugged character of the legendary Toyota LC79, the UCX1801PRO features a detailed quick-release ABS body mounted over a strong aluminium alloy ladder-frame chassis.

Underneath, you'll find a 1212 16T brushless motor, 3-speed mechanical transmission, reverse transmission system, metal drivetrain components, oil-filled shocks and full-time 4WD.

Whether you're tackling an indoor crawler course or heading outside onto the trails, the UCX1801PRO delivers an impressive combination of scale realism and off-road capability.

Officially Licensed Toyota Land Cruiser LC79

The UCX1801PRO faithfully recreates the unmistakable appearance of the Toyota Land Cruiser LC79 Double Cab.

The detailed injection-moulded ABS body captures the rugged styling of the full-size Toyota while providing the durability required for RC trail driving.

Scale details and functional lighting make the LC79 equally impressive as a display model or out on the trail.

Quick-Release ABS Body

UDIRC uses a clever quick-release body mounting system that allows the ABS body to be removed without tools.

This provides easy access to the battery, electronics and chassis for maintenance and battery changes while avoiding conventional body clips that can detract from the scale appearance.

Brushless Power System

The PRO version is equipped with a 1212 16T brushless motor.

Brushless power provides improved efficiency, smooth throttle response and excellent low-speed control compared with a conventional brushed motor.

The motor is paired with an integrated 10A brushless ESC and receiver system.

3-Speed Mechanical Transmission

One of the standout features of the UCX1801PRO is its 3-speed High / Neutral / Low mechanical transmission.

Low Gear

Low range provides increased torque and precise throttle control for technical crawling, steep climbs and difficult obstacles.

High Gear

High range provides greater wheel speed for general trail driving and open terrain.

Neutral

Neutral allows the drivetrain to freewheel, adding another level of realism and versatility.

Gear selection is controlled remotely from the transmitter.

Reverse Transmission Gearbox – Torque Balancing System

The UCX1801PRO incorporates UDIRC's clever reverse transmission gearbox.

This system controls the rotational direction within the central drivetrain so the front and rear axle systems counteract torque effects.

The design helps reduce unwanted chassis movement and wheel lift during steep climbs, improving stability and traction on difficult terrain.

Tank Turn Function

The UCX1801PRO features a Tank Turn function for exceptionally tight manoeuvring.

The system can greatly reduce the vehicle's turning radius, making it particularly useful when negotiating tight trails, rocks and technical crawler courses.

Full-Time 4WD

Power is delivered to all four wheels through the capable 4WD drivetrain.

Four-wheel drive provides the traction required for climbing and helps maintain forward momentum across loose or uneven surfaces.

The UCX1801PRO is well suited to:

• Rocks
• Dirt
• Gravel
• Indoor crawler courses
• Backyard trails
• Uneven terrain
• Technical obstacles
• Scale trail driving

Metal Ladder-Frame Chassis

A strong 1.5mm aluminium alloy ladder-frame chassis forms the backbone of the UCX1801PRO.

The design closely resembles the construction of a full-size off-road vehicle while providing excellent rigidity and strength for RC crawling.

Metal Drivetrain Components

The PRO model incorporates metal components throughout key areas of the drivetrain.

These provide improved strength and durability while helping the drivetrain handle the torque generated by the brushless motor and low-range transmission.

Multi-Link Suspension

The UCX1801PRO features a multi-link suspension system designed to provide plenty of axle articulation.

The suspension allows the wheels to move independently over rocks and uneven terrain while helping keep the tyres in contact with the surface.

This improves traction and stability when crawling.

Oil-Filled Shock Absorbers

The suspension is equipped with oil-filled shock absorbers.

Oil damping provides smoother and more controlled suspension movement than basic friction shocks, helping the LC79 remain composed when travelling across uneven terrain.

Functional LED Lighting

The UCX1801PRO features an impressive scale LED lighting system.

Lighting functions include:

• Headlights
• Tail lights
• Fog lights
• Turn indicators

The controllable lighting adds significantly to the realistic appearance of the Toyota LC79, particularly when driving indoors or in low-light conditions.

Digital Steering Servo

Steering is handled by a compact 5g 3-wire steering servo.

The proportional steering system provides precise directional control, which is especially useful when negotiating technical crawler obstacles.

7.4V 2S Battery Included

The UCX1801PRO comes supplied with a 7.4V 360mAh 2S rechargeable battery.

Advertised running time is approximately 20 minutes, depending on terrain, driving style, gear selection and lighting use.

A USB charging cable is also included.

2.4GHz 4-Channel Radio System

A 2.4GHz 4-channel proportional radio system is included.

The radio allows the driver to control the vehicle's standard driving functions as well as its additional transmission and lighting features.

The advertised operating range is approximately 60 metres under suitable conditions.

Excellent Crawler Geometry

Despite its compact 1/18 scale dimensions, the UCX1801PRO offers impressive off-road geometry.

The approximately 45° approach angle, 35° departure angle and 22mm ground clearance help the vehicle negotiate rocks, inclines and other crawler obstacles.
