  Associated's introduction of their RC10 clearly revolutionized the off-road industry.

Designed as a more professional radio controlled car, the chassis of the RC10 was manufactured from anodized, aircraft-grade aluminum alloy . The shocks were machined, oil-filled and completely tuneable; they were also produced from the same aluminium alloy. Suspension control arms were manufactured from high-impact nylon, as were the two-piece wheels.

 
 
The RC10 transmission contained an innovative differential featuring - hardened steel rings pressed against ball bearings - which made it infinitely adjustable for any track condition. The RC10 quickly became the dominant model in electric off-road racing.
