The Associated RC18T is a 1:18 scale, ready-to-run electric stadium truck made by Associated Electrics of Lake Forest, California. A mechanically similar monster truck version with slightly different bodywork similar to the 1:8 scale, nitromethane-powered Associated "Monster GT" and all-terrain tires with unique "AE" tread pattern is sold as the RC18MT. Both ready-to-run versions feature four wheel drive, fifteen sealed ball bearings, Associated "XPS" micro electronic speed control and oil-filled shock absorbers. A 370-series motor is standard on the T and MT. A full-sized Associated "XP2" two-channel pistol grip radio is standard as well. Though both models are race-ready as delivered, a more serious version was released. This is the "Factory Team" RC18T, available in kit form only, intended as a pure competition vehicle and packed with "Factory Team" upgrades as standard. Associated lists these upgrades as: *Blue-anodized aluminum "dogbone" drive axles *Blue aluminum finned motor mount *Carbide differential balls *Woven graphite battery strap *Blue aluminum threaded shock absorbers *Blue aluminum wheel nuts *Titanium turnbuckles *Extra servo saver for use with Hitec brand radio systems *12-tooth, 13-tooth and 14-tooth motor pinion gears to assist in tuning for different track conditions and motors The popularity of 1:18 scale monster trucks was spurred by the development of the Team Losi Mini-T, the original 1:18 scale mini monster truck. ==Chassis specifications (18T/18MT)== *Length: 218 mm/225 mm *Width: 182 mm/188 mm *Wheelbase: 154 mm *Internal gear ratio: 2.5:1 *Weight (with body):: 540 g *Four wheel drive transfer system: Shaft drive via blue-anodized aluminum drive shaft 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Associated RC18T」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
