Definitely have no interest in buying AE's copy of someone else's design. If anything, this has got me more interested in doing a FW Ten4.1 conversion.

Will Jeff get a cut of the proceeds since they stole his design?

I just received my UPS tracking number too. Very surprised they are shipping this quickly after pre-order.

I'm thinking I see the best 4wd ever made in Blue there by AE, cough, Yokomo. :lol:
So in the case of the RC10 4WD, AE is not doing a re-re of a kit, rather they are doing a re-re of a concept. That concept being the marketing of someone else's 4WD buggy as their own. :lol:


AE 4WD buggy designers:

Yokomo
Jeff

Jeff is in pretty good company!

From what I understand, AE won't even give him a thank you, nor even a discount code for their kit of his own design. Chinese AE can suck on......

Can't wait to get mine and compare the build.

The folks in the US are perfectly capable of sending a formal, or at least heartfelt, thank you, and gifting a kit. It ain't a China problem.
