US Patent number 8,1672,791

[RC-Monster Mike]

Technically, the term "Slipperential" is my trademark whether registered or not and is theoretically protected as such. Likewise, the Monster logo is similarly protected in theory.
There is no $100K in my budget, nor would a Chinese patent do me any good(is there even such a thing - China doesn't recognize patents I thought). Ideally, I license the Slipperential name and concept to larger entities (Losi, AE, Ofna, etc.). Having the actual Patent issued is the first necessary step, though.
