Technical Performance

The Team Associated Factory Team V2 Slipper Hubs represent the latest iteration in drivetrain technology for 1/10 scale RC vehicles, refined through years of competitive racing experience. These hubs are engineered with precision tolerances and robust construction to handle the demands of both casual weekend driving and serious competition use. The V2 designation indicates this is an improved version of the earlier design, incorporating lessons learned from countless hours of racing at the highest levels. Slipper hub design is critical in RC vehicles because it protects the drivetrain from damage under extreme acceleration or impact, essentially acting as a clutch that slips when force exceeds a certain threshold. This prevents catastrophic damage to gears, axles and other expensive drivetrain components. The Factory Team specification ensures that the slip threshold is precisely calibrated for optimal performance across the B4, B44, T4 and SC10 platforms. Materials and construction quality are held to the exacting standards you'd expect from Team Associated's race-proven engineering, with careful attention to bearing surfaces, gear engagement and overall durability. Whether you're maintaining your current setup or upgrading to enhance drivetrain protection, these V2 hubs deliver the engineering excellence that has made Team Associated a leader in competitive RC racing worldwide.
