Yup, it's a very well-built regular ol' Stealth with a B4 top shaft and slipper. No modifications necessary to adapt the B4 slipper and gears to the Stealth and RC10 motor plate.

Wow, so nicely executed. Just when I think I might have a handle on what's going on around here (jharris, vintage AE, miami vice, and others) I see stuff like this. Totally killer and will be bookmarked for what I do with this CE I bought last week on craigslist that will be a brushless runner/racer I hope.

looking sharp! It must be nice to have the painting skills to top it off with a killer body. most of us have to send our body's off etc, well I guess you know first hand how long the painting takes

Looking forward to seeing the progress.
btw, any plans on adding decals to the 4th wheel, the front left in the photos, or is that top secret?

Actually, I'm going to probably do sheets of TEAM ASSOCIATED - FACTORY TEAM RC10 wheel decals in white and black, so... probably.

For white or yellow B4 wheels? I'm guessing those might not sell too well. The white ones as it is would be for dark dyed wheels. I had only planned on running black and white on this pass... and probably not very many, at that.

just that I got some black B4 wheels wither white or yellow would look good on, just curious.

I think it was an Associated touring car piece from the original TC3. I had it re-anodized pink with some other cars a long time ago and had it sitting unused in my tool box. Brushless motors like this don't really need heatsinks, I just put it on for the look right now.

Thanks. But it would also look nice though.

Yes, it's the wide version (long). Both versions should fit fine hanging off of the side of an RC10 gearbox.

This looks great, did you mod the rear B4 hubs at all.
