The Losi has no mods really, just needed stronger metal or replacement parts. If Losi decides to use better metal, nothing changes.
This AE
requires mods to be somewhat competitive (ahem, modifications).
Changes to the vehicle to make it perform better and I think you try to peddle some, hmmmm.
AE has the most championships but they have Always had the best drivers. Very smart! It is the driver. The Ryan's could beat us with coyote's New Brite
Sad but true.
My 8.2 can win out of the box. No "mods" required and the only "personalization" is with my paint.
With any forum, I troll to learn and educate. You seem to "troll" to make a profit but kudos to you. I really applaud that but I see how you and others take offense and it hurts your biz. I apologize for that.
I will bow out now an let you flame me some more but like I said, time is on my side with this truck..
I would like to add that the RC8.2 is a Factory Team kit. There is no SC10 4x4 Factory Team kit yet. I am hopeful that the AE Team drivers, all of them, will include all the critical mods that we are all developing in the FT edition once they come out. I would certainly expect that the FT SC10 4x4 would release with; Sway bars, aluminum hexs, FT Shocks, a new AE slipper, and a battery package option for saddles. I would expect that the AE guys would also improve the chassis stiffness with a brace or something.
I think I am getting Bohdi now. He wants to see a kit that can win without mods like the RC8.2 can. Until the FT edition is released we will not have that so mods are required. I have not been around the hobby too long but what I have seen from AE is that they release a kit and then after they have worked through the fine tuning with the extended team drivers they release a FT version with most of the changes. Heck, the RC8.2 kit was a tweek of the already decent RC8B Factory Team kit.
I have faith in the AE team and love my SC10 4x4 already with mods for now.
