I do hope to see some of these local as I know the LHS can get these in and stock parts. Price looks good, but also curious on the motor as one of the nice things about the longer chassis LC Racing mini's is the longer can motor.
I have to say, the electronics package, mainly the esc and maybe the motor, looks similar other than color of course to what we got in with the LC Racing buggies when you didn't opt for the Tenshock motor. Wouldn't be surprised that a hobbywing regular program card (not the LCD One) works with the esc.
The close up photo where you can see the servo shows the brand on the servo as batan - they are connected with LC racing I understand. I would say these are LC manufactured. Wouldn't be surprised to see a version of LC's own new LWB buggy soon. Also, Blue versions of the red LC alu shocks branded as factory team parts coming also.
Personally, I'm kinda disappointed, they're pretty late with this. Would have been nice to see something a bit more innovative. But hey ho, I'm sure it will sell well, may end up tempted myself (especially by a LWB buggy).
