Team Associated AS90034 RC10B6.4 Team Kit

Description

Champions by Design
1:10 scale 2WD off road has been Team Associated’s signature class since the release of the RC10 in 1984. The Team Associated RC10 buggy series has won 13 of the 18 I.F.M.A.R. World Championships contested, yet we never rest on our laurels. As tires, motors, batteries, and tracks evolve, Team Associated adapts and improves with every iteration of the RC10. With the RC10B6.4 project, engineers had the goals of improving jumping and landing, updating the steering feel to be “easy to drive fast,” and making the buggy corner faster on high-grip carpet and clay.

The RC10B6.4 platform continues the trend of offering two kit configurations. Both kits include the next generation 13mm diameter big-bore shocks and springs to provide the ultimate in damping and stability. The larger diameter shocks reduce pressure inside the shock and minimize the effects of the shaft displacement. This allows the buggy to feel like it’s riding on an invisible cloud when you hit harsh jumps and landings. The chassis, front end, and steering system are optimized for running reduced caster and kickup, which excels on high-speed, high-grip surfaces. An updated steering system with adjustable height bellcranks helps racers minimize bumpsteer. In addition, the front suspension is equipped with new -1mm kingpin offset steering and caster blocks for smooth and predictable front-end feel through the entire throw. The -1mm design pushes the steering pivot closer the centre of the front tire, keeping the front end flat through the entire steering throw.

Both buggies are equipped with a new chassis layout and ESC weights that allow forward-mounted electronics closer to the servo, as well as additional forward battery placement over the previous model. All of the new weight tuning options allow for more high-speed stability and on-power steering on high grip carpet.

Many great features are included, such as an easy-access rear differential, new wide pivot rear aluminium arm mounts for use with 73mm arms and 69mm CVA bones, and updated carbon fibre shock towers with moulded protective covers. Both cars share many great features, such as an easy-access rear differential, new wide pivot rear aluminium arm mounts for use with 73mm arms and 69mm CVA bones, and updated carbon fiber shock towers with moulded protective covers.

The setups and tuning parts remain interchangeable between the RC10B6.4 and the RC10B6.4D configurations. Both versions come with the speed, durability and lineage expected of a true champion. Choose the configuration that suits your track and conquer the competition!

The #90034 RC10B6.4 Team Kit will be the buggy of choice for high-grip carpet or turf track surfaces with the new +3mm chassis layout, 11mm Octalock LCF slipper clutch setup, steel ESC and servo weights, and included anti-roll bars front and rear. The #90035 RC10B6.4D Team Kit includes a new dirt-length chassis, 19mm Octalock LCF slipper clutch setup, aluminium ESC weight, layback gearbox, and an optimized dirt kit setup.

New Features

• New 13mm big-bore threaded aluminium shocks and springs with machined shock pistons for improved bump and jump handling
• New +3mm length aluminium chassis with 22.5 degree kick-up to complement updated front-end geometry and with new shape to reduce chassis scrub with the track surface
• 20deg., 22.5deg., and 25deg. moulded bulkheads included for a complete range of caster and kickup options
• New adjustable height steering bellcrank and rack system for optimized bumpsteer at all ride heights and caster angles
• New -1mm kingpin offset steering and caster block set for smoother and more predictable steering through the entire wheel throw
• New steel RC10B6.4 ESC mounting tray shifted forward in the chassis and with a wider footprint to fit electronics, resulting in a further forward weight bias
• New front ballstud mount, top plate, and front wing mount to account for the kickup angle change
• New chassis side rails with 3 optional fan mount locations to choose from depending on chassis length and transmission used
• New cab-forward design RC10B6.4 bodyshell offered in standard (kit) and lightweight (optional) thickness
• Front and rear anti-roll bars included
• 4mm carbon fibre front and rear shock towers with moulded protective covers

Legacy Features

• Steel servo weight included for low CG and forward weight bias
• Front and rear anti-roll bars included
• 4mm carbon fibre front and rear shock towers with moulded protective covers
• Aluminium servo mounting system with direct-to-chassis mounts and moulded brace with transponder mounting location
• Octalock spur gear and 11mm Octalock LCF pads
• Wide pivot rear aluminium arm mounts for use with 73mm arms and 69mm CVA bones gives more predictable rear traction and an easy-to-drive rear-end feel. Also compatible with 75mm optional arms using the narrowest insert settings.
• Symmetric rear arms with improved geometry and stiffness that can be flipped to allow a “split” for rear shock mounting position. Arms are available in 73mm and 75mm lengths (73mm included)
• Rear hub assembly with modular vertical ball stud camber link mounts and axle height adjustments for precise roll centre adjustments
• Outer rear hinge pins captured with bolt head and locknut for increased durability
• Rod end battery brace parts and hardware included in kit
• Moulded wire clips included for motor and ESC wires
• +1 carbon fibre steering arms
• Black steel LP serrated wheel nuts
• 69mm CVA bones for reduced bone plunge and minimized friction at drive pin
• Clear body and clear wing included
• Front wing mount and front wing included
• 5mm aluminium clamping wheel hexes
• Fluid-filled gear differential
• Adjustable differential height to allow drive shaft alignment through all ride height & axle height configurations
• Shocks include x-rings for low friction assembly
• Aluminium rear ballstud mount with three link positions for maximum adjustability and added strength
• Lightweight aluminium one-piece top shaft and gear
• Factory Team ball bearing set with 24 precision ball bearings, now oiled instead of greased for a more efficient drivetrain
