I don't like their buggy, i think there is too much weight in the back of the car. The motor looks also very small, i think a Feigao L can will outpeform it easily.

But it's a really huge improvement compared to the Nuremberg Toy Fair 2008 where the were proudly showing their 1700mah NiCd packs

You mean you don't like their conversion of this buggy . Mike mentioned his mount for the LRP/SH buggy keeps the weight further forward, unlike LRP's.

The LRP stuff is all made by Speed Passion (so Hobbywing). Their motors are Feigaos too. If anyone wanted this, they could probably pay 2/3 the amount for the Speed Passion ESC and motor. Not that you'd want to.

This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.

If anyone has picture(s) of the inside, I can see who actually made it. At the moment, I doubt that Hobbywing made it since the LRP doesn't have many of its features.

Speed Passion certainly make the LRP 1/10 ESCs and motors... In the same way their engines are made by SH. Basically, like so many things, it appears that for the extra money, you are getting a badge/name...

Trust me on this one, Speed Passion is not a manufacturer. LRP has been out for a long time and even before Speed Passion was ever created. When I say things in this nature, I only bring actual facts.

Yep, another company relying on uneducated noobs to keep them afloat...
