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......

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.
