And those vehicles don't exist anymorearrma had the same design.
just in our hearts (and personal collections)And those vehicles don't exist anymore
well i will pass at that price way to go hpiLooks cool, but $700 for nitro and $765 for electric!
The Savage has had battery trays on the side since the mid 2000s.Careful now, Traxxas may sue it out of existance becuase it has a battery box on each side of the chassis.
Just because it has existed for a while doesn't mean Traxxas won't sue. They sued Redcat for using 2 servos for steering, desipte being on 1/5 scale cars for a long time beforehand; the sued HobbyFever out of business because they sold too much inventory online; the sued Maclan Racing for having an ESC named differently than their own. With the record Traxxas maintains, and the fragility of HPI as it is now, it seems like an abundantly easy target for Traxxas to attack.The Savage has had battery trays on the side since the mid 2000s.
And Traxxas already did sue HPI while they were struggling for their waterproof receiver box which was one of the many reasons they almost went the way of the Dodo.
Probably so.. traxxas think that they thought of it all.. including when they truly didn't.. I will not support them for doing this. Doesn't give a chance for other companies to try anything if they fear a lawsuitCareful now, Traxxas may sue it out of existance becuase it has a battery box on each side of the chassis.
Traxxas never sued Redcat for using 2 servos they sued Redcat for copying their patented steering assembly. https://www.scribd.com/document/232575603/Traxxas-v-Namero-LLC-d-b-a-Redcat-RacingJust because it has existed for a while doesn't mean Traxxas won't sue.

Traxxas never sued Hobbyfever, they told Hobbyfever that they were no longer going to supply them with product, Hobbyfever had too many eggs in the Traxxas basket and screwed themselves over by relying on one brand to support their business.
The sued Maclan Racing for having an esc call the MMAX and Traxxas felt that it encroached on their Trademark for Maxx.
Traxxas can't sue HPI for using them because 1 they don't hold a patent on side mounted battery trays, 2 it is past the statute of limitations as again the Savage has had side mounted battery trays since the mid 2000s , 3 they would also have to go after Hobao and 4 neither company resides in the US so they are SOL.
Traxxas never thought they thought of it, they never patented cantilever shocks, they patented the orientation and angle at which the cantilevers operate which the Nero copied so well that the Traxxas parts would fit, guys were quite literally using the Traxxas cantilever posts on their Neros.

These were all of the items that Arrma copied from the Revo.
Arrma thought they could get away with it by changing things just slightly, but as we all can clearly see they did not change them enough.

Or Ecx they make a lot of good cheap models, best alternative the Traxxas 2wd lineup.Support your friendly RC manufacturer, buy an Arrma (or Savage)
