The drive shaft issue usually shows up a couple months in. Parts start to wear, the coupler looses it's grease and you get some failures. Just because they improve something does not make the old one a bad design. That is like saying everyone should get free carbon towers, alum rear hubs and adjustable pivots. Many have not had any issues with the center drive shafts and the plastic sleeve. some have shot out the pins over time. There is another design with a setscrew to hold the center coupler pin in place but anyone running CVD's know this is not always the answer as this option can fail just as well. Parts will wear out over time and need to be replaced. You can't expect everything to last forever!
Many have had issues within a couple packs, myself included. I'm not a noob nor a pro driver but I'm very detail oriented having ben in this Hobby for 25yrs, befor I even ran my trucks I rebuilt my F&R cvd's with teflon grease and a boot to retain the lubricant and repel dirt. Broke a F&R coupler befor the 5rd pack.
User error, doubt it.
Another Losi over sight due to Chinese QC ? Afraid so.
If I'm expecting to much from the company whom I feel makes one of the best RC's on the market and they expect me to be loyal then they damn well better replace it if it's a manufacturing defect.
Traxxas would, why not HH & Losi ?

Absolutely Avid. Had trouble with Boca in the past. Had to file a claim against them for a supposed lost shipment. Im in Saint Petersburg, FL a few hours from where there located. They gave me nothing but a hard time. Crappy CS. The person I talked to didnt even have a clue about anything to do with RC. Bunch of super tools there. They sell bearings for everything imaginable with no real knowledge of RC applications.
I have to say they botched a order for me as well, just sent the wrong items but they quickly sent the correct bearings out, gave me a $20.00 credit which I used immediately while on the phone w/them AND let me keep the wrong bearings I received which I sold on ebay for 28.00.
Win Win IMO ?
Avid; way more RC friendly and better prices with the package deals they offer. The revolutions hybrid bearings are a pretty cool idea as well.

That does not make it a necessity, it still makes it an option. When a new guy comes in asking for the necessities...that doesnt make the list. Serrated wheel nuts are more valuable in comparison.
As far as american versus whoever, I drive an american car to support america. I can say, love the car, but now that it has hit 130000, I wish it were something else as I know it would still be good for another 150k, lol.
