The Protec 4 body set is an RC-scale reproduction of an American-era Associated body originally produced during the off‑road boom of the 1980s. The set reproduces the era's sharper, straight-line styling instead of a rounded cockpit, offering a distinct vintage off‑road aesthetic for 1/10 electric buggies.
This package includes the main shell and an under cowl, allowing the model to be used on dusty dirt tracks where added lower coverage helps protect internal components from debris. The body is presented as a reprint of the Associated design and maintains the visual cues of that period.
Fit and setup: the Protec 4 is specified for YZ-870C platforms and is also listed as compatible with the YZ-10 chassis. When mounting this body, check body post locations and clearance over the roll cage and electronics; fine adjustments to body mounts and trim lines are a normal part of adapting period-style shells to modern chassis setups. The set is intended as a styling and aero option rather than a performance upgrade, and it interacts with chassis tuning mainly through minor aerodynamic and airflow differences at scale.
Use this body set to give YZ-870C and YZ-10 based cars a period-correct 1980s off‑road look while retaining necessary under-cowl protection for dusty club runs and vintage-themed events.
