If the madrat has the same dimensions, just a different material, then most tools/moulds are presumably used for both the pro-x and the madrat. As I saw a quote from Ansmann saying they had 3000 Madrats i Europe alone, then I am guesing a big part of the cheapness is they can amortise the fixed costs of said tooling etc over a larger volume (R&D also). Plus you have the truck versions etc.

I'm not aware of a kyosho version of the madrat (eg cheaper material rb5), or for that matter the Losi, though correct me if I am wrong??

And just one thing Fabs, if its a copy of the rb5 and also a copy of a losi chassis and b4 rear, erm doesn't that kind of suggest Kyosho cheapened on r&d too as they must have also copide the losi chassis/b4 rear musn't they??
