Team Associated RC10B7D Team Kit - ASC90042

The RC10B7D is Associated Electrics' dirt and clay specialist, built from the ground up for competitive 2WD buggy racing where low grip and setup flexibility win races.

The B7D is the 'D' variant of AE's RC10B7 platform, tuned specifically for dirt, clay, and some low-grip AstroTurf tracks. Out of the box it runs a ball differential and a softer-spring, lower-piston setup that puts grip and predictability first. If your local track is slick or you're coming up through the ranks on natural dirt, this is the variant AE recommends you start with. B7 and B7D parts are fully interchangeable, so your tuning options are wide open as you dial it in.

This is a full competition kit. You build it, tune it, race it. Electronics, wheels and tires, and a painted body are not included, which is exactly how a serious club or national racer wants it: your motor, your ESC, your setup.

Why You'll Love It

• 5-gear laydown transmission: The low-profile motor mount shifts motor weight toward the center of the car, lowering the CG and improving chassis balance without the bulk of an upright configuration.
• Long-arm suspension geometry: More suspension travel and a wider arc of articulation means the car stays planted through ruts and bumps that would upset a shorter-arm setup, and it responds consistently whether the track is fresh or hammered.
• Comprehensive steering and caster tuning: KPI-adjustable steering and caster blocks ship with three options in the kit. Add the vertical front outer ballstud for roll center, camber gain, and link-length adjustment, and you have the front-end tunability of a full Factory Team car right out of the bag.
• 7075-T6 aluminum chassis: An increased departure angle helps clear obstacles at speed, and optional weight plate pockets let you redistribute ballast as track conditions change.
