Graphite or ALuminium for Hop-ups?
I'm thinking to upgrade the chassis, and shock tower for Mini-T, probably other parts later on.
Which material will you suggest for the hop-ups considering Mini-T is a small car? I'm going to use brushless motor soon. So shock impact will be bigger when it hits something.
Aluminium is heavier than graphite, but when it gets shock, it won't snap, but bent.
Graphite is lighter but I'm not sure how much shock it's capable to absorb shock before it's snapped.
