I just saw on redrc.net that jc is coming out w/ a rigid aluminum bell rank set (like avid) that looks pretty light weight (nice!) & some battery thumb screws that require a wrench (why?) & beefed up aluminum wing mounts(???). Why on earth would you want aluminum wing mounts? They are going to add weight, not necessarily a bad thing, but it will all be up high!? Do people break them a lot? I wreck fairly often, but have never broken or bent a plastic one. I have only seen 2 break, ever. One was on a tc02 that stopped at the end of the back straight & got rearended by a 4wd sc truck @ full speed (I apologized profusely & bought the kid some new ones). The other was my son, while learning to control the attitude of a jump he landed 3 or 4 times in row off a big double tail 1st & finally broke it (he had to pay for his own). So, do you really need aluminum adding weight up high for durability?
