Alex97 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Team Associated's RC10B5 and RC10B5M have been met with wild success by racers around the globe at both the club level and at major racing events. Always looking for a challenge, Team Associated's Area 51 engineers took it upon themselves to make the best RC10 to date even better! A version of the B5M that would optimize the platform to excel in classes requiring spec motors and for certain track conditions that allow the racer to take full advantage of the performance offered from reduced weight. Enter the RC10B5M Factory Lite Kit. Shedding over 75 grams of weight! The RC10B5M Factory Lite includes a 3-gear transmission for lower rotational mass, a lightened hard-anodized aluminum chassis, titanium turnbuckles, and aluminum front axles. Coming in at fighting weight, the RC10B5M Factory Lite is sure to be a winner! Features Lightweight, hard-anodized aluminum chassis with centralized mass and mid-motor position for improved handling on high-grip offroad tracks Chassis fits R.O.A.R.-approved 2S saddle packs and 2S short packs using optional foam insert V2 12mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Knight Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Interesting stuff, I wonder what the price tag will be? I've heard Neil Cragg was testing a using a highly modified B5M prototype at Worksop last weekend. And the team drivers testing 3 gear transmission and they didn't go any better.

Alex97 Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 The new chassis... I can't see this being a massive seller as most people who would want this already have a hopped up b5m. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Knight Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 I think I'd rather spend the money on a XFactory Infinite chassis. I've always preferred carbon chassis, it made a good difference to my XB2 when I fitted one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex97 Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 (edited) The chassis might be better for flex so that might be an option if I break my current chassis (im sure I never ever will lol) Edited January 30, 2015 by alex97 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
