I thought that UE was overrated at first too, when i only had a savage and no UE parts. When you got a UE part in hand and an FLM, you can tell by the finish and details that the UE is superiour)

it is tough as possible. The word overrated makes it sound like you are able to have it machined yourself for 1/2 the price. (including the R&D)

please don't use the word overrated for the UE stuff. I may be your opinion that it is too expensive for RC parts, but some people are willing to invest, and biased on their quality/finish etc, it is topnotch stuff for a decent price.

BUT to be honest, the FLM 1/8th conversion is as good as possible, you don't need the VBS to be in the high quality zone. FLM covers the entire load. it is fair cheap, good quality and pretty darn tough too!
i understand what your saying serum and your right, ue is topnotch and a very high quality as i have had some parts but i just can see myself spending 400+ dollars on a vbs when i can get the flm for 150. i only paid 400 for my revo. if i ever get another maxx i will certainly get some ue stuff but nothing over 200 bucks. it just isnt worth it to ME. some people it might be but flm is almost just as good for less than half the price.
