Team Associated Updated RC8B4.2 in three variants

RC8B4.2

1:8 scale off-road racing is easily the toughest and most competitive side of the RC hobby. It takes serious mechanical skill and precision to make it to the podium.

The team over at Area 51 just dropped the latest update to the legendary RC8 series, and the RC8B4.2 is built to take things to the next level. They’ve tweaked every detail to help you attack technical sections with way more speed and confidence.

The new RC8B4.2 Team Kit is a game changer:

* New adjustable front and rear gearboxes so you can dial in your diff height and geometry.
* Updated hubs and rear arms for better rotation and grip.
* New -4mm FWB chassis to help you handle all kinds of track conditions.
* High-volume center diff for better oil capacity and consistent performance over long races.
* New long chassis brace options for fine-tuning how the car flexes.
* High-downforce rear wing to keep you planted through jumps and corners.
* Factory Team hard-anodized shock bushings for buttery smooth suspension.
* Updated brakes for a more consistent, responsive feel.
* Soft-blend suspension arms for extra grip and durability on rough tracks.
* 8-degree KPI steering blocks for sharper turn-in and better front-end stability.
* Beefed-up 44/13 ring and pinion gears for max power and reliability.
* 92mm universal driveshafts with heavy-duty 17mm outdrives.
* 19mm HTC internal diff gears for smoother, more efficient power.
* Comes with a factory-optimized setup that’s perfect for loose dirt and big, bumpy tracks.

The other two variants include the electric “e” version and a new “Euro Edition” designed to handle the more common high grip ultra fast tracks more common in Europe.
