That warning is on all kinds of stuff. Basically everything causes cancer. California wants everyone to know it lol!! Can't go in the sun, can't drink alcohol, can't smoke anything, eating too much red meat, breathing too much exhaust fumes...... you name it, someone's linked it to cancer somehow. An RC is the last thing I would be concerned about causing cancer.

Damn straight! I know a girl who went to my high school. She was a "good" girl. Didn't drink, smoke or do anything wrong. She got lung cancer and passed before she was 21. My Great Grandfather smoked cigars till he passed at 94 years old. He also loved eating all things that are bad for you. I'm not saying that leading a healthy lifestyle doesn't help, based on what I've witnessed in my short 38 years, being "healthy" Garuntees nothing

I wish I would have seen this before I agreed to fix one for a kid. Local Traxxas shop (our only local hobby shop) called me and asked if I'd be interested in helping a youngster out and of course I said yes. After he dropped it off I knew it needed trans gears, I headed in to teardown and holy crap. What a non user friendly design. Teardown half the truck to pull the diff. Metal top gear plastic idler and diff ? And you sell it brushless likee that ? Come on Arrma that's dumb. The replacement gear kit also comes only with all 3 gears and there all plastic ? Again dumb. Wish his dad had bought him a Stampede it comes with metal gears and takes 5 min to change them if you somehow kill one. Also the local shop stocks them. Other than that the truck looks good but..........
