What can you tell me about a rc10? I'm thinking about one a guy has me a deal on for 250$ and I don't know I'm really gonna be getting involved in, I've had electric rc's before but not one like this. Is it 4s capable? Its all stock and just wanna know what this truck is before I buy it. Any knowledge about it would be appreciated.

What RC10 is it? There is so many RC10s. Even the newer kits are RC10 because they have RC10 in the name like the B74.1, B74.2, B6.3, B6.4 ect.
Most likely only 2s capable, 3s your risking it, and 4s you'll blow it up. Cause its a race competitive buggy / vintage race buggy.
Pics will for sure help.
They also have RC10 stadium trucks if I remember my vintage / classic AE race kits. I'm a newer guy, lol.

Does it look anything like this yellow buggy? This is an RC10 B4.

Full etymology of the RC10 here, note there are links to the 4WD variants of the RC10:

When you say RC10 by itself you are implying the original release gold pan or the re-release of that car, otherwise you need to fill in the sub release info if it's not the gold pan.

I would trust it wouldn’t be able to withstand 4S. 3S max, 2S to be safe.

Saw an original RC10 gold pan "special edition " sealed in box for $4k on eBay. I think I paid $125 for my first one in the 80's.
