Race-Winning Engineering

For maximum traction, the RC10 suspension is damped by long throw, hard anodized, fluid-filled racing shocks, using machined alloy cylinders and drill blank shafts for silky smooth action.

Rugged, yet light, the suspension gives you all the adjustability of full-size race buggies. The A-arm/Ball joint design allows precise camber, caster, ride height, and spring rate tuning. Even the adjustable Stealth™ differential is included, and the updated chassis fits 6-cell NiMh and 2S LiPo battery packs. Exceptional ground clearance and low center of gravity also contribute to the superb balance and performance of the RC10 over all types of terrain.
