1:10 scale 2WD off road buggy racing--the pinnacle of RC car racing. Since the introduction of the RC10 in 1984, the Team Associated RC10 buggy platform has won 13 of the 18 I.F.M.A.R. World Championships contested since the class began. You now have the chance to drive a buggy derived from this race-winning heritage with the beginner-friendly, yet capable and powerful RB10.
The RB10 Electric Off-road Buggy was engineered using Team Associated's vast knowledge and success in the 1:10 scale 2WD racing category. Featuring a water-resistant, high-power Reedy brushless speed control, 3300kV brushless motor, a 2.4GHz 2-channel radio system, as well as our DVC (Dynamic Vehicle Control) receiver unit with built-in adjustable digital gyro. Add to that a Reedy metal-gear, digital high-torque servo, and a water-resistant enclosed receiver box. All of this packaged together in an outstanding factory-finished off-road buggy body with wing. And to keep you sticking to the terrain, the RB10 will keep you accelerating and cornering with the included aggressive off-road treaded tires and lightweight 12mm hex wheels.

Even more rewarding than I expected. I already had a Team Associated Trophy Rat see my review for that..... I'm pleased with it but it was not without minor quality issues but wanted something a bit smaller that was easy to strap to a backpack. Whilst considering this, I was never honestly overly fussed for the looks of the cab forward body but I knew it was a good, compact, 2WD platform. I'm glad to say I think it looks better in the flesh and from rear angles, actually looks really good. I fitted all black Absima dish wheels and tyres and this now makes it look very cool. The only negative that I have to report was that straight out of the box, one of the front wheels would not freewheel smoothly. I was worried it was a bad bearing but actually it was the inner hex of the wheel somehow being a bit mangled like you would expect on an incorrectly installed rear wheel become a bit ripped up when driven. No idea how this happened on a brand new front wheel. I got the dremel out and tidied up the bits that were rubbing and then everything was fine. Apart from that, all good. It handles beautifully and you can do very controlled power slides on tarmac, which is fun. I bought a faster pinion gear 23T and expected to want to fit this straight away but at the moment the standard gearing I think it's an 18T is plenty fun enough. It's not going to visually impress like a larger car would but it definitely still whizzes around in a way that makes people want to have a go.
