I only got into this hobby a few years ago, and when I got a good look at what UE had to offer I jumpped on the fist chance I had to get my hands on one. I picked up a brand new (never used) complete lightning SuperMaxx kit in pieces that some poor guy spent two years getting together for a build that he dreamed of for years. He ran into personal problems and had to part with his dream. His loss, my gain. I got lucky and I am not sad about my purchase by any means. Now that I have it in my posession I do not plan on parting with it any time soon. I have a few versions of the same truck, but this thing is the lamborgini of EMaxx's. It is strong, lite, and very pretty from an engineering standpoint. I have a Plettenburg "Big Maximum" and a Schulze controller on their way for this truck.

It really is too bad that UE is no longer interested in providing the R/C community with this kind of product, because it is just not a big money maker for them. It is how ever a work of art that will most likely stand as the best after market E-Maxx vehicle ever made. I am very happy to have one, and plan on having fun playing with it from time to time. Yes spares are getting hard to find, and when I no longer have the parts to repair it I will probably part it out. That will be a shame, but death is a part of life.
