What do you think of upgrading it to a steel outdrive like the one made by TUNE UP R/C?

Which CVD do you use? the stock blue one or the black steel one when using spool? My last race I broke a new 42mm stock one during hard full lock left corner...and thats without hitting anything. Will using black steel one make it more durable?

Thanks.
