At this stage where we still have the ability to make changes it was our decision not to dispute the claim, not a lack of ability or resources. As a young company it's more important for us to develop creative and innovative solutions to problems rather than battling legal situations such as this, even if we aren't in the wrong. We are proud and confident in the original design of all current and future products. Our resources are much better used to improve our product and formulate a smooth speed control release to our quickly expanding customer base.
