Why you may ask? Because he invented Xmods of course.

I was bored an researched patents and found Xmod's patent.

Here seems to be the company he worked/works for:

Turns out, this is also the company that produces the RealDrive, so it would make sense to why there are copies of Xmods bodies onto RealDrives.

Link to their products:

According to their products, it seems RadioShack has a lot of their products (like helicopters and a RC Tundra)




And the links to other patents on Xmod's case and controller.

Wow! I didn't know who created Xmods until now!

Very awesome find, the exploded view of the chassis and the wiring diagram are hella handy.

CCP sure did a better job w/ this chassis and market. Mac Frontier deco FTW!

Here's something else I found. For the GT-R, did the RealDrive copy Xmods, or did Xmods copy RealDrive?

notice that the gen 1 was originally planned to have a 180 size motor...

Very nice find TaiwaneseKid.

In the left hand side, you can see the F-150 Monster truck thing available in Germany.

Very Cool

Its an Xmod Body, im not sure about the chassis. I thought the RDM's were knock off's! Xmods > Realdrive.
