Hmm, I see other oportunities in the MT section of the market than fooling with some almost 10 year old stuff for atruck that is getting a bit long in the tooth. Don't get me wrong, I like maxx trucks, and have a few, but there are better designs out there (revo for example) that could do with some re-engineering. I would like to see a lightning-esque chassis for the erevo, something interesting that really plays on its strengths.

Also, I have to say that an electric specific chassis for the lst would definately sell, especially if the steering setup was redone, and the chassis stretched a bit. I am working one something like that myself, but it would be nice for a real company to start making stuff for us LST fans. Flm did the savage chassis, and it is nice. They should branch out and include some other vehicles.

UE did not patent his stuff for a reason, and he should not be pissed. He quit making stuff when there still was a demand, and now someone has take up his slack. Sure, UE parts are know for their elegant design and durability, and knock offs will only look the same. I will always wonder why anyone would want to add a bunck of al parts to a truck that is not that strong to begin with, but that is just me and that is why I have a bunch of maxx trucks with plastic everything and lightweight wheels. That is how they survive best.
