Team Associated RC28R.1 Team Kit

Fresh on the heels of the first running of the Team Associated 1:28 International which took place in Las Vegas at the start of this month, Team Associated has released the latest version of their 1:28 contender, the RC28R.1 Team Kit.  The new kit gets an updated steel chassis plate and new centre bulkhead design that allows for 24mm wide battery packs and more space for mounting electronics while also reducing chassis scrub.  Also featuring a new FT carbon fibre upper arm brace, front bulkhead shim and upper arm options, offered in .5 and 1 degree camber with 2 and 4 degrees of caster.  The torsion side links (soft, medium, and hard included) replace the need for a side spring making setup easy while adding performance in areas a conventional spring does not.
