Define prts quality? The fit and finish . The holding power and longtevity.
The packaging. I put a entire xxxt-cr kit together , did not have one problem
with it . Now granted you may had a problem no one denies you that .
But your one problem does not define entire line of cars as being poor quality.
I have no allegiance as a racer , I just started this sport 4 months ago .
Xray may well have a great quality , what about parts support , availabilty.
Also over time they will cheapen it up if they want more market share.
I remember when I was a kid , my brother had a Kyosho, nice car,but he could never get parts from it at the hobby store. Kyosho had crap service for the hobby shop , thats it not poor quality just poor service.
I think it never helps a hobby when folks call a brand poor in way unless
it happens across the board. Just cause Losi was boughten it doesn't make
them a poor product now. Designs are boughten and sold every day in the market. Let me ask this where did you buy the kit at ? I like losi , but I probably like a tamiya big rig to . I am easy to please . Because if there is
an issue usually I attempted to resolve it before spouting off about it.
By the way I am not trying to flame you or crap on your problems.

This thread got a bit out of hand; we go from questioning Losi to HPI to incoherent posting.
What's everyone's beef with the e-Firestorm? Does anybody actually try to drive one, much less seen one in person before making assessments on it? I've owned pretty much all the current 2WD stadium trucks, and the e-Firestorm is actually very competitive, and definitely worlds above a Rustler in performance while being able to take bad hits and keep going.

I actually was able to use one at the local track , I like it , especially
with a metal tranny. The reason I didn't buy it, because there is no parts support from the track hobby shop. I purchased what they had parts support for. I am not much for online purchasing let alone typing coherently.
I loved the paint scheme on the firestorm also.

if you've been doing this for more than 2 weeks you should know that nothing is unbreakable, and I'm sure nobody at losi or anywhere else for that matter would ever call a part unbreakable
some parts makers have warranties, but nobody claims to be unbreakable

You should probably talk to Rolls-Royce and let them know their titanium engine blades will break when something hits them.

there is also a big difference in the initial and replacement costs

It would be a sad day when people get into fights over r/c cars. I would probly sit there laughing over it though.
