The Team Associated Rival MT8 Brushless - Teal (AS20521) is a powerful 1:8 scale Ready-To-Run monster truck built for serious off-road action. Running on a single 4S or 6S LiPo, it pairs a high-torque 2100kv brushless motor with a 150A ESC for strong acceleration and top-end performance. A 4mm aluminium main chassis with rigid centre supports, sealed all-metal drivetrain and heavy-duty CVA components deliver durability, while a four-position adjustable wheelie bar helps manage the power on loose or high-grip surfaces.
Long-travel independent suspension and 16mm big-bore, threaded aluminium, fluid-filled coil-over shocks smooth out rough terrain. Giant aggressive tyres maximise traction, and a high-torque digital servo with metal horn provides confident steering. Finished in a striking teal body scheme and supplied with a 2.4GHz 2-channel radio system, the Rival MT8 is engineered to take on asphalt, grass and dirt with ease.

Reviews
Puts a huge grin on my face. 6S is a blast, wheelies, flips and correction in the air are all too easy with this truck. I have a V6 Arrma Notorious too and it’s just as much fun although definitely not as durable as the Arrma.

Questions & Answers
On 4s this truck will hit around 45- 50mph - on 6s around 60mph.
That is 4s-6s so a miniumum of 4s lipo.
