From what I understand the KM Baja is just one clone and not all clones are the KM. Either way HPI did nothing revolutionary with the design and as such they obviously don't have a patent on the product or else it wouldn't sell in the US. I also saw HPI Europe's response which I find silly because the clones obviously sell in Europe as well. My guess is that the clone is really the original and HPI contracted the chinese plant to make it and brand it for them. I am sure there were probably some changes and maybe a little stricter QC but that's about all I will give it.
