Technical Performance
The Team Associated RC10 Protech Bodyshell and Wing (Clear) AS6159 is manufactured from high-quality polycarbonate material designed to provide excellent durability whilst maintaining the transparency required for the clear finish. The bodyshell features the authentic proportions and aerodynamic profile of the original RC10 Protech design, ensuring it sits perfectly on compatible chassis platforms and delivers the visual impact for which the RC10 is legendary. The clear finish is not merely cosmetic; it represents a significant engineering achievement, as transparent polycarbonate must be formulated to withstand the stresses of RC racing and bashing whilst maintaining optical clarity. The included wing complements the bodyshell design and contributes to the overall downforce characteristics of your build, essential for high-speed running and stability. For UK RC car enthusiasts, this represents the most authentic way to achieve the classic RC10 look that defined a generation of RC racing. The bodyshell's compatibility across eight different RC10 variants demonstrates Team Associated's commitment to backward and forward compatibility, making this an investment piece that retains value and functionality across multiple machines.

If you own any major variant of the modern RC10 range, this bodyshell will fit.
- Is the RC10 Protech Bodyshell good for beginners? — This is an option part rather than a complete car, so it's designed for builders and restorers rather than complete beginners. However, if you already own an RC10 chassis and are looking to upgrade or restore your bodywork, installation is straightforward. You'll need an existing RC10 to use this bodyshell, so it's ideal for enthusiasts expanding their RC collection or restoring vintage machines.
- Why should I choose clear bodywork instead of standard opaque finishes? — The clear Protech design is the authentic original finish for the RC10, making it the correct choice if you want historical accuracy. Visually, the clear finish allows you to showcase the engineering underneath your RC10 whilst maintaining the iconic appearance. Many collectors specifically seek clear bodyshells because they represent the classic look that made the RC10 legendary.

- What is the difference between this and other RC10 bodyshells? — The Protech is the authentic original design that defined the RC10's appearance when it first launched.
