The Associated Electrics RC10 2WD off-road buggy was first introduced in 1984 as an electric, 1:10 scale off-road dune buggy. Associated had previous success with its 1:12 scale RC12 on-road electric R/C car. The RC10, a ruggedly designed off-road race machine, was their major breakthrough and was largely responsible for creating the off-road R/C racing industry.
Innovative ideas such as the anodized aluminum tub chassis, coil-over oil-filled shocks, a limited slip ball-differential, and fully independent A-arm suspension allowed the RC10 to easily out-perform all other competitors' offerings. The RC10 can be regarded as the first electric off-road car that was designed with the amateur and professional remote control car racer in mind. As a result, it soon dominated the electric off-road racing scene.
Since that time, the RC10 and its companion truck series, the RC10T, have each gone through several major design revisions, denoted by their model ("B" for buggy and "T" for truck), as well as a revision number. For example, the latest model from each series are the RC10B4 and the RC10T4. They also have a shaft-drive AWD buggy called RC10 B44. The RC10T was later released as a nitro-powered model version, the RC10GT, which was later updated to the RC10GT2. Almost all models of RC10s are available in kit or "Ready to Run" form.
