Unfortunatly I see the market has actually regressed rather than going forward (MM not handling as many cells as before). I get it that it is always about making money, as it should be. If there is no profit then the company will eventually go out of business (passion or not...), I get it! This is not a good enough reason to not develop what the market is asking for. I think a lot of the RC manufactures are missing the boat.
I can't believe non of the 1/8 buggy companies have put out an electric buggy. I can't believe the BL companies do not have systems to handle 1/8 buggies, 1/8 monster trucks, 1/5 buggy/truck/cars.
There is plenty of money out there...just not enough business creativity to harness it. I guess I'll take my money and spend it on other things while I wait for the RC market to get off of its A**. (See attached pic).
Sorry for the rant, but I have been in the hobby for over 26 years and it is such a shame that it can't keep up with today's technology.

There shall be some changes. I've been designing some chassis specifically for BL systems. I have a 200A 14S capable controller being made and it is just the beginning. I have a few choices for the motor. Just whish the big companies would come out with a system that we would be happy with. If I can do it, imagine the companies that have 30yrs+ of experience, in house engineers and a nice load of money (I'm comparing this companies with me btw LOL).
