But the biggest difference is they have zero liability. No lawyer in any other country could touch them for liability, loss of life, etc, because they are shielded by operating out of PRC.
So they are completely able to operate with no regard for quality, safety, etc.
They ship products containing Lead into Europe with impunity (something that would land me a HUGE lawsuit from the EU.)
Etc. etc. etc.

I basically forgot about all those issues
. I take all the fault for my stupidity.
Patrick, if you move the distributors aside for the or a Special HV RC-Monster Edition, would we see some discount? I think $300 is fair, but if we can get it for less, it would be even better. I will basically power all my R/Cs with it. Actually the little ones will have room issues, but I can figure something out
. Maybe you can cook up 3 HV RC-Monster Edition. One for 1/8 scale, one for 1/10 scale and one for the little 1/18-1/14 scale. A complete HV line for cars
. I could see Schulze in trouble here
