If HB can do it, they all should be able to. So how much is Kyosho and Losi making off the sale of each vehicle.. Manufacturing costs vary depending on where it is manufactured, but most of these manufactured on Taiwan or similar, so production costs have to be very similar..
I have a HB D8 & D8T, and neither have anymore wear then the Jammin I had prior when it had similar run time on it.. So, it isn't a matter of better materials being used either. And HB's handle supremely better..
