Default Give your thanks to Nobuaki Ogihara

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

http://www.google.com/patents?id=qz1...ad=1_1#PPA1,M1

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

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

https://web.archive.org/web/20120229...utline_en.html

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:

https://web.archive.org/web/20120505...ini/index.html
https://web.archive.org/web/20101215...premium02.html
https://web.archive.org/web/20101215...premium03.html


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.

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

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

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

Hypothetical question- if the white WRX and others are still on sale over there, how much would you guys pay for a starter?
