Team Associated RC10T Model 24 Kit

For this week’s kit release from Team Associated they are offering the RC10T Model 24 kit, which they say is ‘a faithful, downsized tribute to one of the most iconic radio control trucks ever created.’ Designed as an exact replica of the legendary 1:10 RC10T, this 1:24 scale version captures the same unmistakable silhouette, proportions, and design details that defined a generation of RC racing. From the classic white wheels and gold-anodised aluminium tub, to the unmistakable suspension layout, every element reflects the heritage of the original championship winning truck. Despite its compact size, the RC10T Model 24 delivers an authentic RC experience. This model is perfect for collectors, longtime RC enthusiasts, and newcomers alike who want to experience RC10T history in a smaller, more accessible format. Long-throw, fluid-filled racing shocks deliver smooth, controlled damping, while the lightweight yet rugged suspension provides real adjustability just like larger counterpart race buggies. The A-arm design allows precise tuning of camber, ride height, and spring rates, and an adjustable gear differential ensures balanced power delivery. With excellent ground clearance and a low center of gravity, the RC10T Model 24 delivers impressive balance and performance across a variety of surfaces.
