history......Skunkworks led to skunk2 which led to blox. blox isn't owned by skunk2, blox is owned by former skunkworks peeps. Leaving out a lot of details, basically skunkworks crew split into the two other companies. They both make copied designs of parts but skunk2 over time is developing their own new products. If you like skunk2 you'll like blox. Neither are great but neither are bottom of the barrel
