Well I agree on the upgrading thing, most people upgrade the same things weather real or clone, your Gunna upgrade. If your looking to keep it stock, your on the wrong hobby cuz shits Gunna break if u bash and nothing is perfect. On the engines, it's a hit or miss really, Me and a couple people had a bad experience with rovan engines, you and a couple people had a good experience with em. The difference is, your willing to take that risk on their engines, me on the other hand, would rather not risk or potentially waste my money on rovan engines while I can just get a g320 Zenoah which is a much better platform of engine for a very similar price and know it's Gunna work no matter what. I can't comment on the "clone and real are exactly the same" thing you said because ive not had a real hpi but what I can tell you is, I've many different people say this on different forums ?Seesit kicking off and just jumps right in ??
Ive had rovans my engine is a rovan i had other engines and a few rc's and i can honestly say i broke the most on my mcd but.. my rovan 45 did me so well i rebuilt it to discover the new crankcase and cylinder are improved even down to the coating and honing..but i know the clones are as good as the genuine and when they are not its only mi or things if any of you guys don't agree then you have clearly not had a clone you have the same or similar problems when you bash or race with a clone and a genuine car thats a fact also people who like to upgrade their rigs whether clone or original always upgrade the same parts when they afe upgrading for bashing or racing so if they werent almost as equal or even equal why do people do the same upgrades on the clones as the originals and why are there still alot of clones out there everywhere just look at youtube look at botagel on youtube and all those other guys
