Traxxas put a real high performance BL system in , beefed up many areas of the vehicle, and improved a few other things. I think there is a clear difference here. Not too mention is Traxxas was smart and actually used a sensoreless system but still left the option there for someone who still wants sensored.

I guess this means that now that Traxxas has done this that ROAR will have a little more pressure to allow sensorless in.
The one thing you are missing, is the fact the Velineon is made for the Rusty, Stampede, Jato type cars. I don't believe after reading everything that it will push the Maxx or Revo's. I noticed there chart went to 3s lipo. So this is basically another system like the MM, which can be run on 4s and even 5s. I bet that if you hook the Velineon on to 4s, it would melt that esc. This is my opinion though after a quick glance, unless there are versions for the maxx and revo's/heavier trucks. So technically, Traxxas is still behind with CC unless it is reated higher for MT's.
