Exchange Programs
Do you have lots of old RC gear lying around? You can send in your working or non-working engine, radio system, speed control, motor, starter box, or servo FROM ANY MANUFACTURER and exchange it towards the purchase of brand new Team Associated or Reedy equipment.
The items you send in do not have to function at all. (Cut wires, missing connectors, and failed engines are okay!)
All major components must be sent in, though. (Example: Engine needs to include piston/sleeve, connecting rod, carb, and head assembly).
Rules and conditions for the Team Associated and Reedy Upgrade Exchange Program:
Must be a North American resident.
The items you send in do not have to function at all. (Cut wires, missing connectors are okay!)
All major components must be sent in. Damaged is okay.

Use only a shipper providing a tracking service, such as USPS, UPS, and FedEx. Team Associated is not responsible for items lost in transit to Team Associated.
