It's a clone of the FS racing buggy, which is a poor clone of the MCD racerunner. So its a clone of a clone. Avoid it, it will be dire rubbish. You can get a real FS for that price.

It may be a real FS just being sold under a different brand... But when you consider that you can get an ARTR FG Baja from pitstop-shop.nl for not much more, it's a no-brainer.

It is REAL affordable object.

If one think it is clone, find its original DNA?

Affordable at first, yes, but face it, how much will you spend to upgrade it to where you address all the weak parts? Yes, you have to always fix something on an RC, but on a poorer made RC, you will have to fix it more often and this spend more money to get those parts.

So please dont pull this "cheaper therefore better" rhetoric on us because it is always not the case like you make it out to be.

Let me turn the question back on you: just what are your experiences with the real deal RCs?

And tell the truth, not from your bias of playing up the RC you sell.

As I have said to you before, I, and everyone else in RCU, have nothing to prove to you.
You on the other hand are the seller, you have everything to prove to us, the potential customers. The only thing I really need to prove anything to you is that I have the money if I do buy anything from you.
