The Pro2 SC10SW short course truck is based on the 9-time ROAR Short Course National Championship-winning trucks, featuring a water-resistant high-power Reedy brushless speed control and 3300kV brushless motor, a 2.4GHz 2-channel radio system as well as our DVC (Dynamic Vehicle Control) receiver unit with built-in adjustable digital gyro. Add to that a Reedy Power metal-gear, digital high-torque servo and a water-resistant enclosed receiver box. And to keep you sticking to the terrain, this SC10SW short wheelbase beast will keep you cornering with the included high-grip all-terrain tires and lightweight wheels. The time for tearing up the track is now.

Team Associated’s new Pro2 SC10SW short course truck is a detailed and fun-to-drive Ready-to-Run RC truck.

This makes it a perfect platform for short course racing!

This looks interesting. Price point at 300 for what looks like a decent rtr is not bad. If they offer a clear body at some point as an option I would be more excited.

Another RB10/DB10/DK10 variant, but I like the new body.

Gyros don't belong in offroad racing.
If I can't drive it on the track, I built it wrong or I can't drive.

A gyro will not help either issue.

I never owned a gyro I didn't turn off....on or off road doesn't matter

I'm done with Team Associated. I sold the Hoonitruck and Hoonicorn as "unrun". I sold the Gatekeeper and Trailrunner truck. I have an almost finished "gold pan A stamp RC10 that I've kinda lost interest in and a RC10 RS SCT converted to sand drag use that will most likely never get beyond a quick blast. I'm not interested in their constant "recycling program".

constant "recycling program

I feel like this about Traxxas.
They lost me when they started suing everyone but I still cringe every time I hear about a 'new' Traxxas release.

Yeah, it is a terrible hobby, sure wouldn't want to offer any encouragement to the new folks.

Y'all seem a bit young to be such devout curmudgeons.

I'm all for encouraging new folks. I don't want to lie to them about what they are buying tho.
I don't have an issue with using old designs and technology in new and fun ways. I try to do the same thing with my own builds.
I don't like when a company is selling 20 year old RCs with a fancy new body and tires, calls it 'new' and adds $125 to the price.
At least AE is honest about them reusing the old design but 'upgraded'.

I won't ever encourage anyone, ever, to put a gyro in their RC. Its not new, its just cheating imo.
