Buggy 1/10 4x2 Competition Team Associated RC10B7.1 Team Kit, carpet/AstroTurf edition with anti-roll bars and gear differential.

Updated version of the B7.

What’s new in the B7.1:

• Includes a 3-gear transmission that preserves the original B7 motor position while reducing rotating mass and drag.

• The new steering block and uprights simplify assembly and reduce weight without sacrificing adjustability.

• New front ball-stud support with -2 mm offset included, with updated top plate and standard ball-joint mount.

• New front suspension arms with reinforcement at hinge pins for improved durability (fewer breaks).

• New front shock tower with -2 mm offset and rear “Gull-Dropper” shock tower and suspension arm plates for a lower center of gravity.

• The rear shocks are mounted upside-down to lower the center of gravity as much as possible.

• Includes a set of inverted rear shock spacers FT.

• New rear C arm block with -1 degree to reduce toe and improve buggy behavior on high-traction tracks.

Team Associated has been at the forefront of 4x2 off-road at 1/10 scale for the last 40 years, starting with the original RC10, and is proud to present to the world the new generation of RC10, the RC10B7.1.

These 40 years have seen many developments and changes, each generation a step forward from the previous. The RC10B7 is no exception, with a new suspension geometry with long arms, a centralized-weight electronic system, KPI-adjustable steering blocks, and increased adjustment possibilities across the chassis.

These innovations have increased grip and cornering speed potential, resulting in faster lap times and an overall easier-to-pilot feel than the previous generation.

The RC10B7 is the recommended entry kit for those planning to race on carpet, AstroTurf, and on some high-traction dirt tracks.

This kit is equipped with a brand-new differential, front and rear anti-roll bars, and an optimized grip-oriented setup, which includes stiffer springs and shock pistons with a larger "pack".

As with previous generations, the RC10B7 and RC10B7D feature interchangeable parts between the two kits, allowing the user to choose the configuration they want to use based on track conditions. Both versions share the same durability, speed, and champion lineage found across Team Associated's racing platforms.

Unchanged from the B7:

• The suspension geometry with longer arms improves grip and predictability in all conditions.

• The steering blocks and adjustable KPI toe allow refining steering feel. Three options are included in the kit.

• The front vertical outer ball joint enables precise adjustment of the roll center, camber gain, and tie-rod length.

• The height-adjustable front aluminum cell allows fine-tuning of the front roll center.

• Rear standard knuckles and HRC (High Roll Center) included.

• Front and rear anti-roll bars easily accessible.

• The high-volume gear differential improves differential consistency on longer runs. Compatible with LTC internal differentials from the RC10B74.2.

• The highly adjustable battery mount with push-buttons allows easy battery removal and fine tuning of weight distribution.

• 7075-T6 aluminum chassis with increased caster angle and pockets for optional weight plate.

• The 6.5 mm front aluminum axle increases stability and grip when using narrow front wheels and low-profile tires.

• 69 mm CVA HD drive shafts and differential cups for improved durability.

• Lightweight molded servo mount.

• One-piece rear wing mount for greater durability.

• New 7-inch rear wing and 2.5-inch front wing.

• Low-profile body.

• Front and rear shock tower protectors.

• Robust 3.5 mm inverted-pitch tie rods.
