1:10 scale 2WD off road has been Team Associated's signature racing class ever since the release of the original RC10 in 1984. The Team Associated RC10 buggy series has won eleven I.F.M.A.R. World Championships since the racing class began in 1985.

Making the best even better is not an easy task. However, the designers in Area 51 took on the challenge and not only made the B5 better, but they surpassed our expectations. Countless hours of engineering and testing were done with the focus on retaining the performance proven in the B4, while pushing the design to an even higher level.

The RC10B5 is built on a newly designed narrow tub chassis that keeps the mass centralized and balanced, improving rough track handling and overall performance. Factory Team parts like 12mm Big Bore threaded shocks and VTS slipper clutch come standard in the B5 Team Kit!

Welcome to the future - your RC10B5 Team Kit is waiting for you!

Both the B5 and B5M won the 2014 RC Car Action Readers' Choice for Electric Buggy and Editors' Choice for Car of the Year!
