Had some free time and made a spreadsheet comparing some of the hot racing products for arrma 6s to their aliexpress counterparts. As it shows, most that I found are exactly the same, except they’re being sold at even 20% of the HR price. There are some products that HR makes which are original and worth buying (eg. Locking Shock rod ends), but either way, it’s all such cheap metal likely from a single factory.
Products like their bulkheads or wing mounts or diff cases that can be found on aliexpress for so much cheaper make me detest the company. I’m all for the products that they come up with, but something doesn’t sit with me about selling a $22 (aliexpress price) bulkhead for $77. I’m sure most of you know this already, but I’m hoping it can show others how much they can save if they wait a week or two on the Chinese shipping. My Ali orders have been coming in 7-10 days, it’s really impressive. Of course, ADU is much higher quality. Most of these parts are sold by ADU and they’re so much higher quality, actually innovative, and often the same price.
