My guesstimation is that Joe Public doesn't know the difference between the "regular" ZZ vs. the "SE" ZZ and therefore wasn't willing to pay the extra money for the SE...And even for the ones that opted to try the SE out, they probably got too frustrated (or too impatient) to properly learn to drive them and either returned them or griped about it to others and thereby making others not want them.

Even for us clued-in people that actually appreciated the SE for what it was/is (1/64th scale, semi-propo RC for under $30!), we've had our fair share of problems with them too. I give full credit to Radioshack for coming out with newer generations of the SE in an effort to fix the problems...But I guess, in the end, they had to break it down to what they think will make money. It seems they think Movie Themed cars is it.
