As an authorised retailer of Team Associated RC parts, RC Model Shop stocks genuine Factory Team components that meet the exact specifications you need for competitive performance.

If you're serious about RC buggy racing in the UK or simply want the best performance your B6.3 can deliver, these carbon fibre suspension arms are an essential upgrade. The combination of lightweight construction, extreme rigidity, and improved durability makes these arms a worthwhile investment for anyone seeking better handling characteristics and more predictable front-end response during high-speed cornering and acceleration.

Key Features

• Lightweight Carbon Fibre Construction — These front suspension arms deliver approximately 12% weight savings over traditional hard plastic material options, significantly reducing the unsprung mass at the front of your RC buggy and improving acceleration, braking response, and overall agility on the track.
• Extreme Rigidity — The carbon fibre composite material provides exceptional stiffness that results in more predictable handling characteristics, particularly valuable in high-traction applications where consistent front-end feedback is critical for maintaining control during aggressive cornering and fast direction changes.
• Superior Durability — Despite being lighter than hard plastic alternatives, these carbon fibre arms offer significantly improved strength and impact resistance, meaning fewer replacements and more time enjoying your RC car rather than servicing it.
• Factory Team Specification — These are genuine Team Associated Factory Team (FT) components developed and tested by the manufacturer's racing team, ensuring they meet the highest standards for competition-level performance and reliability.
• Gullwing Design — The distinctive gullwing geometry provides both aesthetic appeal and functional benefits for suspension geometry and clearance characteristics on your B6.3 platform.
• Increased Vehicle Stability — The combination of reduced weight and increased rigidity delivers enhanced stability during fast corners, allowing for more confident driving and better lap times on competitive tracks.

Technical Performance

These Team Associated B6.3 FT Front Suspension Arms represent the pinnacle of modern RC buggy suspension design, combining advanced carbon fibre composite engineering with factory-proven geometry. The 12% weight reduction compared to hard plastic arms has a measurable impact on your RC buggy's dynamics, lowering the centre of gravity and reducing rotational inertia at the front wheels. This translates directly into quicker weight transfer during acceleration and braking, more responsive steering inputs, and improved traction out of corners. The extreme rigidity of the carbon fibre material ensures that the suspension geometry remains consistent even under the demanding loads experienced during high-speed racing on tarmac and carpet surfaces. Unlike softer materials that can flex and deflect, these arms maintain precise geometry throughout a race, providing the predictable handling characteristics essential for competitive performance. The engineering behind these parts reflects Team Associated's decades of RC buggy racing expertise, with the gullwing configuration optimised for modern 4WD buggy platforms. Build quality is exceptional throughout, with careful attention to detail in every aspect of the manufacturing process. These are not budget option parts; they are premium Factory Team components designed for racers who accept nothing less than the best. The improved durability means impact damage is significantly less likely, and even if your car encounters a dramatic collision, the arms are more likely to survive intact rather than shattering like traditional hard plastic alternatives. For serious RC enthusiasts in the UK seeking competition-grade performance upgrades, these carbon fibre arms deliver measurable improvements in handling precision and vehicle stability.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Which Team Associated RC buggies are these front suspension arms compatible with? — These gullwing carbon fibre arms are specifically designed for the RC10B6.3, RC10B6.3D, RC10B6.4, and RC10B6.4D models. Always verify your chassis model before ordering to ensure correct fitment. These are front suspension components only and are not compatible with other Team Associated platforms or manufacturers' vehicles.
• What is the weight saving compared to hard plastic suspension arms? — The carbon fibre construction delivers approximately 12% weight savings over traditional hard plastic suspension arm options. Whilst this might sound modest, the reduction in unsprung mass at the front of your RC buggy has a surprisingly significant impact on handling precision and acceleration performance.
• Are these arms suitable for a beginner RC car enthusiast? — These Factory Team parts are specification components rather than beginner-friendly upgrades. If you're new to RC buggies, you'll likely benefit more from mastering a standard setup first. However, if you already own a B6.3 and are looking to improve performance, these arms represent an excellent investment that will last through many seasons of RC racing.
• What makes these carbon fibre arms more durable than hard plastic? — Carbon fibre composite has a different failure characteristic compared to hard plastic. Rather than catastrophically shattering on impact, carbon fibre arms can absorb and distribute energy more effectively, resulting in significantly improved strength and resistance to impact damage. This means fewer replacement parts and better value long-term.
• Will these arms improve my RC buggy's cornering performance? — Yes, the combination of reduced weight and increased rigidity directly improves cornering performance. The lighter arms reduce unsprung mass, allowing your suspension to respond more quickly to track irregularities, whilst the extreme rigidity ensures consistent suspension geometry through high-speed corners, resulting in more predictable handling and better traction.
• Are these official Team Associated parts? — These are genuine Factory Team (FT) components manufactured by Team Associated, the original equipment maker. They are not third-party replicas or alternative options. As an authorised Team Associated retailer, RC Model Shop stocks only genuine factory-original parts.
