1:8 Scale Electric 4WD Off Road Competition Truggy Kit

Team Associated has taken all of the performance engineering developed for the RC8B3, RC8B3e, and RC8T3 Team kits and used the data to complete the family of 1:8 off-road vehicles with our new brushless-powered RC8T3e Team Kit!

The RC8T3e Team Kit was developed based on the RC8T3 nitro truggy and uses a unique proprietary hard-anodized 7075-T6 aluminum chassis specifically designed for brushless power with optimum weight distribution and superior handling.

The RC8T3e shares over 90% parts compatibility with the RC8T3 nitro truggy, offering the perfect solution for multi-class racers. Knowing that racers would be competing in 1:8 buggy and truggy in both nitro and electric forms at the same events, the RC8T3e was designed to handle and respond to changes. This similar handling characteristic gives the racer a huge advantage, as tuning changes can be applied seamlessly!

Designed to handle, built to win. The RC8T3e Team Kit was designed to give the committed electric 1:8 racer the highest level of performance that will help take your program to the next level.
