Hey the Swiss are known for their watches, that's some tiny engineering. :???:

It's been slow, I have an idea in the works but I need to finish up some other projects first, most of the stuff lately has been a couple of newer guys.

Hmmmm. Guess we're getting closer to extinction in fact... as bits aren't beeing produced anymore, this seemed to be a matter of time, didn't it?

I think that it's just these have been around for so long and everything you can do to them has been done (for the most part). Unless someone comes up with some crazy new idea or new technology. These have reached their climax along time ago. This happens with all rc platforms. We ether have to wait for a new small platform to molest or just hope there is a revival with new tech.

I think the novelty of 1/64ish RC has simply wore off...still plenty of clones available though, and new more scale like stuff keeps popping up.

I've kind of been hoping the dead economy stirs a revival, manufactures should be looking for inexpensive products that can be easily shipped in quantity...a good advertising campaign and a ready supply could cause a resurgence easily. TRU should have pimped the hell out of the Micro Terrain Titans and the other micro combo pack thing they have...a cool fad that cost less than $20...perfect for birthdays, Christmas, divorced fathers when they get visitation. :-o
