Overview

Note: This kit comes without a Motor, Servos, Receiver Battery, Charger, Wheels or Transmitter and will come with an unpainted polycarbonate shell that may require cutting, painting and drilling.

The RC8B4.1 Team Kit is the next chapter in the legacy of the 2022 IFMAR World Champion-winning RC8B4. Team Associated engineers focused on lowering the centre of gravity (CG), reducing weight, and enhancing handling on un-groomed outdoor tracks.

A new, stiffer tapered chassis profile forms the core of the buggy, delivering predictable high-speed handling while allowing for a softer overall shock package. The suspension features new low-CG shock towers (front and rear) and shorter shocks, working in conjunction with innovative 3-hole rear suspension arms. The wide base rear hubs offer three fixed axle heights and utilise 3mm carbon fibre hub towers, providing a multitude of geometry options. The RC8B4.1 also features 92mm universal joints, 44/13 bevel gears, and a 47T spur gear.

Note: This kit comes without a Motor, Servos, Receiver Battery, Charger, Wheels or Transmitter and will come with an unpainted polycarbonate shell that may require cutting, painting and drilling.
