What's Hobby?

What do you all consider hobby grade R/C? Is it the electronics, chassis, name, type, etc.

PLEASE BE MATURE. I'd like not to have anyone banned because of their attitude.

In my book the X-mod isn't hobby grade and Mini-z barely qualifies, if at all, because unless you are an electronics guru or a machinist that can fabricate your own stuff, you're stuck with whatever upgrades are made for those specific vehicles. If I have an RC10, then I can stick in it whatever I want. If I want an MSC then I can do it, If I want to run a certain Novak at 14.4V with a 7t double motor, then I'd be nuts, but I could do it or I could stick in a Monster Truck motor with 20t and I can change to an 87t or whatever spur, idler or pinion that I wanted to. There is just so much more you can do with the other cars...even more than I mentioned.
