Affirmative statements aren't facts.

Ya my bad on saying what I heard, ae was building a lot of stuff and landed with a buggy that resembled Mugens platform. Isn’t really a surprise people saying it’s a copy but I shouldn’t have believed one manufacturer made a buggy for another. Would make no sense to think they couldn’t make there own version of it but people seem to think the copy is so close I could basically say they built it for them. Good to know AE built there own car.

everyone copies everyone at some point.

Go with what you like. Since local parts support is out of the question, its a coin toss. Both cars have been tearing it up and collecting W's since their release.

See if you can get to the track and ask for a few laps if both vehicles are at the track. This would be the greatest way to settle your issue.

Both cars share parts/support with the electronic counterpart.

I suggest AE.

I recently just bought an AE vehicle after being Losi for the past few years. I am returning to AE as I used to run them before my hiatus from the hobby.

Good luck!

fyi theres less factories that produce our hobby level rc cars than you can count on one hand and they are all in the same area in china. Id imagine a few cars or at least say the plastics for a few manufactures are all molded in the same factory.
