RC18T RTR Truck:

The 18T’s racing heritage is apparent in many features of the truck, including its efficient shaft-drive, 4WD powertrain featuring adjustable ball differentials front and rear. The 18T is powered by an inline-mounted “Super 280” high-performance motor, bolted to an aluminum motor mount with several mounting holes to fit most any aftermarket 1:18 scale hop-up motor. A high-capacity 1100mAh nickel-metal hydride (Ni-MH) battery pack is included with the 18T, as well as a convenient charger. The 18T comes standard with a 55 tooth spur gear and a metal 12 tooth pinion with set screw. However, the truck will accommodate larger spur gears (up to 60 teeth) by changing the small gear cover on the underside of the chassis.

All the Team Associated “XP” series electronics in the 18T are completely modular, allowing independent replacement of the receiver, steering servo, and the new “XPS” micro speed control with reverse, which provides smooth throttle control and will handle most aftermarket hop-up motors.

In the suspension department, the 18T distinguishes itself from the pack with real oil-filled shocks for smooth, consistent damping. Each of the four lower suspension arms are identical and interchangeable, front to back and right to left. Molded upper suspension links ensure that the 18T’s suspension is correctly set from the start. However, steel or titanium turnbuckle kits will be offered for those racers wanting more adjustability. The 18T also features four high-traction “Mini-Pin” racing compound tires with foam inserts mounted on racing-style dish wheels.

Of course, the 18T will be supported by a full line of Associated’s “Factory Team” performance parts and accessories, including machined aluminum suspension arms, shock towers, and shock bodies. In addition, Reedy will soon be offering more powerful motors and batteries to fit the 18T and other Mini-sized vehicles.

If you’re looking for the next big thing in small trucks, you’ve found it…Team Associated’s RC18T!
