Technical Performance

The Team Associated RC10 4WD Rear Bulkhead With Wing Tubes is engineered from the same premium materials and to the same exacting standards as the rest of the RC10 4WD platform. The RC10 4WD itself features a black anodised 6061-T6 aluminium monocoque tub chassis—a rigid, lightweight construction method that has proven itself in competitive RC racing for decades. This rear bulkhead assembly integrates seamlessly with the updated chassis stiffener system found on the modern RC10 4WD Team Car kit, which includes new updated belt guides and improved structural integrity compared to earlier variants. The 4WD platform uses fully adjustable four-wheel independent suspension with precision ball bearings throughout, long-travel fluid-filled hard-anodised aluminium coil-over shocks, and a low centre of gravity for excellent handling characteristics. The rear transmission employs race-proven Stealth transmissions and adjustable ball differentials, all mounted on a chassis designed for 2.2-inch wheels. With this rear bulkhead and wing tube assembly in place, your RC10 4WD maintains the geometry necessary for optimal performance with both 6-cell NiMh and 2S LiPo battery packs. The integrated wing tube design contributes to the aerodynamic balance of the platform, which measures 381mm in length, 241mm in width, and features a 273mm wheelbase on a 1/10 scale chassis.
