If the plan is to continue using the same crappy pcb, thin cheap aluminum case and blinking lights for setting changes, then they should just close down. Hobbywing isn't the only brand better than lrp. tekin is also.
I wonder when was the last time you have used an LRP ESC?
The FlowX is great and the current batteries too. The only thing is the stoxk motors need a refresh. the 7.4V bec and the programing box are nice to haves, but not essential for the functionality. lrp will bring a program box they announced it with the FlowX.
LRP need to refocus on the core market ESC, batteries and motors for cars, boats, planes and drones. All the RTR stuff is nice but it is hard on the profit margins, a lot returns and free repairs killing it. especially in europe with the strict laws.
Just my 2$.
