"But on balance, its about what you want out of it, HL suits me as it serves it purpose, and I simply refuse to pay tamiya prices. The guts in the Tamiyas may be better, BUT the price difference is disproportionate so I see them as the ogre here not HL. 100 dollars more yes, probably fair, 500 dollars more? that is simply taking the pi55. It truly was a monopoly and now it is ending, as HL gain business they should invest in quality and the products will come up to scratch, so...basic economics here, if we all support them by buying an HL, we will accellerate the process and have a reliable RC tank at a fair price from both companies"[8D]
