Overview

Hold a piece of RC history in the palm of your hand with the Team Associated RC28 Zoom. This 1/28 scale micro buggy is a faithful replica of the legendary RC10 Classic, the "Gold Tub" buggy that changed off-road racing forever. Despite its tiny size, it features authentic body lines, a pre-printed livery that mimics the original box art, and realistic wheels with rubber tyres. It is the perfect desk racer for office downtime or creating a micro track in your living room.

The RC28 Zoom is updated for modern convenience. Unlike previous micro models, it features an integrated battery that charges via a standard USB-C port, making it easier than ever to power up without draining your transmitter batteries. The included 2.4GHz transmitter provides reliable, proportional control, allowing you to navigate around coffee mugs and keyboards with precision.

This Ready-to-Run package is designed for instant fun. Team Associated has included everything you need in the box, meaning you can open it up, charge the vehicle, and start driving immediately. With its smooth suspension and capable 2WD drivetrain, the RC28 Zoom proves that big fun comes in small packages.

The Team Associated RC28 Zoom is a pocket-sized tribute to a racing legend—charge up and drive!

    I love this small RC car. It’s my first hobby-grade one and it runs a beauty at a very affordable price. A big shout out to Hobbies Direct customer service team who helped me select the right RC car for my needs. They ran me through the available options and helped me clear my mind. My experience with them has been flawless.

    Question: how fast does it go ?

    DanielStaff26 Oct 2026
    Answer:

    Team Associated does not publish an official top speed specification for the 1/28 scale RC28 series. In practical use, micro buggies of this scale typically reach speeds around 10 to 12 km/h. Given its small 143 mm length and lightweight build, this speed provides plenty of quick, responsive fun for driving on hard floors, tiles, or indoor desk tracks.
