Sorry, am I misunderstanding you, are you claiming they've cloned the top decks? Despite both being a different shape with different cross bracing and certainly the front with different mounting positions (and the back from looking at it, the Tamiya top deck stops in front of the rear end, doesn't the mid go further back!?
Then the weight distribution is different, the steering mechanism is different, hard to tell just from CAD but it looks like Tamiya are using their touring idea of mounting the steering to the top deck in a single central place to change flex characteristics!? I had misread the diagram though, the motor looks in the same place!?
So basically, it has shafts and a motor in the same place, and the rest is different (they both took their suspension geometry from earlier cars), so it's a clone!?
