Looks are subjective. If you don't like the way it looks, you don't have to bash it, just don't buy it. Not singling anyone out, just I see a lot of repeated negative feedback. As far as the suspension goes, the way I see it, what difference does it make if the suspension is accurately modeled if you can't see it when you're tearing past at 25 mph anyway? Does that mean my 1/7th scale Tiger Moth isn't scale because it uses a single cylinder four-stroke instead of a 1/7th scale Gypsy inverted-4, and it's controlled by servos instead of a 1/7th scale midget?
If we're talking about static display, fine and dandy, but these are runners! Some things just don't scale down well with an acceptable level of performance. Just my 2ยข.
