It looks like an older AE SC10 to me, but im not totally sure.

Yea idk im just guessing from pics he's possibly buying this offline & want to kno exactly what it is so only pics he got is what he posted^^^
If TA, it would marked as such.
Actually, someone else was looking at it on eBay, and, since i primarily run SCT's, and its listed as an SCT, he asked me if i knew what it was. Frankly, i have no clue. I don't run AE stuff, so i asked a guy i know who only owns AE stuff, and he pointed out why its not an AE (fixed links, different shock tower and bumper), so, i figured i would ask here.Yea idk im just guessing from pics he's possibly buying this offline & want to kno exactly what it is so only pics he got is what he posted
This is an original AE SC10 Team Kit, according to a guy i know who owns a large amount of AE stuff, and, to me, they both look very similar. This pic was taken from here: http://www.rccoh.com/IMG/collections/whipnet/ae.sc10.htmlThis is a TA Pro2 SCT.
That was going to be my guess too. Or maybe a Duratrax?Could be an old Thundertiger.
Definitely not a blitzThe hpi blitz had a very similar chassis to what's shown as well..
Edit: just looked.. not a blitz..
I think the tell tale sign to identify it is by the shape of the side bumpers.That was going to be my guess too. Or maybe a Duratrax?
Also do note that the RC10 and SC10 platforms were copied by a lot of companies.
Its listed on eBay as an unknown SCT, and a guy i know was looking for a slider for a project when he came across it. Since my primary RC, and the ones i use the most are all SCT's (ok, so i have a minor (see major lol) obsession with them), he thought maybe i could identify it, and the closest i came to it was possibly an AE RC10, but then my resident AE expert pointed out that if it is, it is the cheapest AE ever built. I knew almost instantly what it wasnt, going back to the early 200's, and is a long list (HPI, early Arrma (before Hobbico closed), Kyosho, Duratrax, Team Durango, Racers Edge, Traxxas, Losi) as those i can identify pretty much instantly. I used to hang out at Walt's outside Syracuse, N.Y. pretty much every weekend watching the SCT's race, and checking out what was on the shelves.It's a team associate rc10. The box layout and battery tray is a giveaway. Just don't know what version.
I stand corrected. I might be wrong as well.
Take a picture of the rear flaps and the battery tray where it say rc10.com or something
Looks like a knockoff or clone from China it has philips screws all over the place.I find it hard to believe there is no brand logo. If there is none, it can't be much of anything tbh.
TLR, TA and the major brands always had markings.
Maybe an old Thundertiger. Or some off shoot brand.
If it is a TT , I would pass on it as far as buying it. How would you get parts for something obsolete or discontinuued? Unless you are building a Shelfqueen.
That isnt always the case though. There were some well known vehicles that had very few (my Aarma Fury says Aarma on the front bumper and thats the only marking it has) to no markings, like my Racers Edge Pro2 and Team C TS2. The top three brands, Traxxas, AE and TLR marked their stuff, but there were a lot that didnt. Tamiya is another one that comes to mind that didnt mark their stuff.I find it hard to believe there is no brand logo. If there is none, it can't be much of anything tbh.

A lot of the older stuff had philips screws. My first gen Aarma Fury has a mix of hex and philips, and every Tamiya i have has philips screwsLooks like a knockoff or clone from China it has philips screws all over the place.
