Team Associated TC4 4WD Kit

Team Associated’s RC10TC4 RTR: taking the wild success of the TC3 RTR to the next level.

Team Associated’s RC10TC4 Touring Car is the refinement of the revolutionary TC3 platform, optimized with more precise tuning features, better balance, and greater durability.

Team Associated takes full advantage of all these improvements and combines them to bring you the RC10TC4 RTR. The TC4 RTR features include a Reedy Radon 17-turn motor, LRP’s latest Ai automatic speed control and Team Associated's XP radio system, all factory assembled. The TC4 RTR also comes with treaded tires mounted on chrome 8-spoke wheels, composite CVDs, ball diffs, VCS oil-filled composite shocks and a cool street-tuner decal sheet. All that’s left for you to do is to add your batteries and get ready to lay down the rubber.

The TC4 RTR is supported by a full line of “Factory Team” performance parts, including blue titanium turnbuckles, optional radial heat sinks, a motor air-duct cooling system, and a full range of carbon chassis components.

TC4 Team Kit

Up front, the TC4 features the double-decked impact-resistant plastic and lightweight foam bumper system adopted from the Nitro TC3. The shock towers have also been redesigned for greater strength, and now have four upper shock mounting hole options. The rear body mounts have also been relocated outward on the shock tower to give wider support to the body. The drive train of the TC4 has received many refinements, including a new design 6061 T6 blue anodized aluminum drive shaft that fits in stronger, beefed-up composite drive cups. The included genuine Kimbrough 72-tooth spur gear mounts on a more secure, 3-bolt hub with 6 mounting positions to fit most any spur gear. The blue aluminum MIP CVD’s have also been upgraded from the previous-generation TC3, and are now thicker and 3 times stronger for maximum resistance to bending. The molded composite wheel hex drives now feature a “star drive” shape which allows more exact manufacturing tolerances, and a more precise fit with most standard touring car wheels. The TC4 comes standard with blue anodized aluminum threaded shock bodies, a feature previously included only on the Factory Team level kits.

The TC4’s all-new suspension components spent many months of development in Area 51, resulting in major improvements in adjustability, precision, and strength. The inner arm hinge pins are now larger-diameter, 40% stronger, and are captured in the arm mounts by pivot balls to provide consistently free, non-binding movement. This floating hinge pin system allowed us to develop an all-new anti-dive, anti-squat suspension adjustment shim system front and rear. The wheelbase is now adjustable .090” at the inboard suspension hinge pins, providing, total of .180 adjustment. Both the front and rear suspension links feature vertical ballstud adjustment for making precise changes in your chassis’ roll-center.

The steering system has also been optimized, and now features a new dual-bellcrank/rack configuration similar to the Nitro TC3. This ball-bearing supported system is less susceptible to capturing track debris that could bind up the rack’s movement, and also features an integral spring-loaded servo saver and Ackerman adjustments using the optional ballstud spacers.
