That cat was used in old Schumacher manuals, sometimes just for fun, sometimes to bring special attention to a tricky build step or provide a helpful tip.

From the Bosscat manual:

It seems like that cat should be a Schumacher decal
Frankensteined RC10T3 / Franky Jr RC10GT-e (x2) / A+ stamp / Toy Story RC / Graphite replica / B1.5 BFG 5LTi / Clonewald / Hyper Hornet

That would have been cool. For the decal sheets the friendly cat wearing a Schumacher hat was swapped out for this homicidal maniac looking thing. :lol:

On my Cat 2000ec, which i unfortunately sold eight years ago, was a sticker of the friendly cat with no hat but sunglasses. Sorry for the poor quality, I had to zoom in deep into old pictures.

Anybody who has used a one touch Tekin esc knows about the urge to punch someone.
Always looking for new and interesting ways to waste money.
