I don't understand why traxxas head-honchos are so paranoid about people wanting to improve their models with aftermarket parts ( that traxxas don't even sell = no competition for $$ ). Maybe if traxxas spent more time addressing their own short comings rather than silencing anyone brave/foolish enough to identify them, then they would have much more respect from the r/c community as a whole.
Thats really odd considering the level of aftermarket support there is for Traxxas has. If you want something better than what Traxxas makes, there's someone who makes it. Look at the Maxx series RCs, its a "traxxas" but not. As a MFG I'd be HAPPY if people were out there making upgrades like that for my products. Look at Ford, the aftermarket support for the Mustang is what keeps these cars alive years after they leave the factory.
