B5 and B5M...
There's a post on RC10Talk that mentions AE released the TC6.2 manual online by mistake that had the part numbers for a RC10B5 and RC10B5M kit/s... but was then removed shortly after. Maybe a new 2wd and an official AE mid motor before long?

I saw the same thing but are they listed in the printed manual or was it an online mistake/hoax. Hopefully the next few days will offer some clarification. |

Sounds a bit like an online hoax
TC6.2 manual here page 36 - http://www.teamassociated.com/pdf/ca...6.2_manual.pdf Other people are saying they've downloaded the manual and it's on there but who knows

If you google "associated RC10B5 90003" there is a cached version of the TC6.2 manual where it lists on page 36 under 1/12th, 1/10th & RTR kits two models:
90001 RC10B5 Team Kit 90003 RC10B5M Factory Team Kit I have no idea if this means a new car, a complete Centro kit or just a hoax/joke by associated/someone else but I do find the whole "when will there be a RC10B5 Midmotor kit" even more entertaining than watching skateboarding cats on youtube. If you google RC10B5 people were talking about it back in 2009!! Rob

Just googled what you said 'Associated RC10B5 90003' and like you said, from the 2nd to last result you can see that Associated did infact put it on their site by accident in the description there.
That confirms that this wasn't really a hoax... at very least a publicity stunt from Associated, but most likely a car.

The cached website search index / manual seems to suggest was genuine... lot of hassle to go to for a quick joke. Cliff Lett said they were working on their own mid conversion a few months back in one of the Radio Impound podcasts too... could add up... timescales is probably the only unknown..

I think it will be coming, AE as a large US firm will not want their cars to be winning with someone else's conversion fitted, they will want the car to be 100% AE.And TBH they need to,they must have lost a huge slice of the european market compered to what they had a few years ago by not having an out of the box mid or mid/rear car.
The thing is for years the basic RC10 design has just very slowly evolved from the original...now they will have to reinvent it. no small task for the AE design team, I think they finally admitted change was needed when they let the team run mid at the worlds.

Unfortunately I imagine anyone who really knows won't be allowed to tell us. The Doctor above reckons Feb/Mar.
The discounts available on Centro kits seems to suggest it is fairly close but imagine even once it is announced it will be a couple of months before we can get hold of one so Feb/Mar is probably the very earliest we could even hope. Be interesting to see if they come up with anything really innovative given how packed with competitive cars the MM 2WD market is at the moment. Rob

yep thats defo a 1/10th 2wd I know they had been testing a new 1/8th as i'd seen a video on either neobuggy or redrc so thought this teaser may have been for that but from what you can see in that pic it looks a lot like a 1/10th 2wd front end |

Looks like a completely different car from the B4 platform.
