Are the mad monkey and x2c etc arms the same,as in plastic material etc. I have an x2c and mad rat/monkey here and they look identical. No carbon or strength/flex difference.

Any input gladly received.

There's no mention of Team C there... he's on about the 'Team' cars, the higher end products (X4/X2C etc) compared to the monkey/rat which would be classed in the RTR category i guess.

He said Team Cars so ie. x2c, x2 pro, x2te, x4te, x4 pro. The more brittle plastic is on the mad monkey and rats and also the rtrs. I'm not 100% sure why but someone has told me it's the carbon content in the plastics.

From my experience there is in not much in it tbh.
Weirdly i have found the Mad monkey/rat plastics good when its very cold and the X2c plastics better on hot sunny days :)
I have seen a few X2c chassis snap in half in the cold.
