YZ-10 / YZ-870C Compatible Protec 4 Body - YZ-101P by Yokomo  [YZ-101P]

Protec 4 - history and practical details

The Protec 4 is an RC-scale reprint of an Associated Corporation American off-road body from the 1980s. Its straight-lined, period-accurate styling recreates the era's look for 1/10 electric buggies, offering a vintage profile rather than the rounded cockpit approach used on later shells.

The set contains the main shell and an under cowl to give extra lower coverage for dusty or loose-surface conditions, helping to protect receivers, batteries, and other on-board components. The reprint keeps the original visual cues of the Associated design while improving lower protection for dusty runs.

Fitment guidance: the Protec 4 is specified for YZ-870C platforms and is also listed as compatible with the YZ-10 chassis. Always check body post spacing and clearances over roll cages and electronics before final mounting; modest trimming and mount tweaks are often necessary to achieve tidy fitment. This body is offered as a cosmetic and protective accessory, not a performance upgrade, with any aerodynamic influence being minor at RC scale.

Choose the Protec 4 to give YZ-870C and YZ-10 based cars an authentic 1980s off-road appearance while retaining under-cowl protection for dusty club tracks and classic events.
