TEAM ASSOCIATED RC28R TEAM KIT WITH RADBODY MAKO X & WHEEL/TYRES

Introducing the Team Associated RC28R Team Kit. This compact on-road race car is designed with the same engineering precision found in every AREA 51-developed product. Though small in scale, the RC28R delivers big performance in an easy to set up package. Featuring a fixed-arm front suspension with included optional molded upper arms for tuning caster and camber.

The battery holder design ensures quick access without disturbing the center shock.

The steel chassis plate provides a low center of gravity while the insert adjustable roll center enables chassis roll adjustment based on the grip level. The pitch, roll and droop can further be tuned/Adjusted with the threaded aluminium center shock, spring collars and side damper tubes. The two-piece rear pod allows quick axle height adjustment utilizing Factory Team carbon fiber shims. Fine-tune Ackermann on the fly with the adjustable servo mount. Compact, tunable, and designed to race, the RC28R is built for high performance and fun—even in tight spaces.
