Thank you for your statement.
Nevertheless, being able to modify the engine when needed, is a big advantage,
competiton-wise...
I agree with Richard, this is a good thing. No consultant gets to modify the engine right now and it costs money for RunRev to add features by doing so. So if there is something that can only be accomplished by modifying the engine, and a third party wants to pay for it, YES YES YES!
For example, lets say someone wanted to have a clean USB interface from RunRev out to any USB device. A USB device manufacturer might pay for that mod and in the next rev, we will get it. I'm all for adding expensive features into the standard code set and having someone else pay for the engineering effort VERSUS not getting those features for a long while because they are expensive and low bang for the buck in RunRev priorities.
As far as competition goes, if the only way to solve a problem is to modify the engine, you would not have been able to compete anyway. Having others pay for engineering on the module is a win win situation.
