Painting Tips:
Your B64 comes with a clear polycarbonate
body. You will need to prep the body before you
can paint it. Wash the inside thoroughly with
warm water and liquid detergent. Dry the body
using a clean, soft, lint-free cloth. Use the sup-
plied window masks to cover the windows from
the INSIDE of the body (RC cars get painted
from the inside).
Using high quality masking tape, apply tape to
the inside of the body to create a design. Spray
(either rattle can or airbrush) the paint to the
inside of the body (prefferably dark colors first,
lighter colors last).
NOTE: use ONLY paint that is recommended
for use with (polycarbonate) plastics. If you
don’t, you can destroy the plastic body!!!!).
After painting, cut the body along the trim lines.
Make sure to drill or use a body reamer to make
the holes for the body mounts and antenna!

B64 Gear Ratio Chart (Internal Gear Ratio 2.47:1)
Motor Gearing:
Proper motor gearing will result in maximum performance and run time while reducing the chance of overheating and
premature motor failure. The gear ratio chart lists recommended starting gear ratios for the most widely used
motor types. Gear ratios will vary depending upon motor brand, wind, and electronic speed control. Consult your
motor and electronic speed control manufacturers for more information.
Team Associated is not responsible for motor damage due to improper gearing.
Set The Gear Mesh:
You should be able to rock the spur gear back
and forth in the teeth of the pinion gear without
making the pinion gear move. If the spur gear
mesh is tight, then loosen the #31532 screws
and move the motor away, then try again.
A gear mesh that is too tight or too loose will
reduce power and damage the gear teeth.
