Technical Performance

The Team Associated Antenna Kit represents excellent engineering in a seemingly simple component. The antenna tube is manufactured from durable plastic material that resists cracking and deterioration from UV exposure, mud, and temperature variations common to outdoor RC racing. The design prioritises functionality and durability without adding unnecessary weight or complexity to your vehicle setup. The protective end cap features a tight fit that keeps your receiver antenna secure whilst remaining easy to remove for servicing or receiver replacement. The overall construction reflects Team Associated's commitment to quality manufacturing standards, with smooth internal surfaces that allow cable routing without friction or pinching. This is the kind of foundational component that separates well-maintained competitive RC vehicles from those suffering from antenna-related radio glitches and signal dropouts. The lightweight nature of this kit makes it ideal for all driving styles, from high-speed competition racing where weight savings matter, through to scale crawling and trail running where durability and protection are paramount.
