I agree with Capt. We are working here trying to improve something and also trying to be creative. Your argument about "if it will work, why doesn't RS have it?" doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Here is a small list of upgrades that RS doesn't have but do work:

1. Lithium Ion battery upgrades
2. Carbon fibre drive shafts
3. Metal lugs and shims
4. Aluminum brackets and suspension pieces
5. Carbon fibre chassis'
6. Aluminum chassis'
7. Stacked FETs
8. 130 and 180 size motors

And that's just a list off the top of my head. I know there's more but that's just without thinking about it too hard. The point you made about it not being at RS is moot. If people like us listened to people like you where would we be today? Maybe our idea won't work. So? If you don't have any constructive criticism, then don't say anything. You say that it will be like the dual motor and warp into something else. If this does work or ends up turning into another upgrade that makes your XMods faster are you going to buy it? Have you bought anything for your XMods that doesn't come from RS?

I'm not trying to start a flame war I just don't like it when people jack other people's discussions just to flame or put down their ideas. He didn't once say why it wouldn't work or even offer any thoughtful ideas. Just picture however many years ago someone said "I want to make a small car that you can control via a radio signal". I bet there was someone just like little ben here who said "You guys are dumb b*stards... it will never work and you're just wasting your time".
