Hi all
Thought I’d nailed it and getting all my parts from one place, but I have just had an email from rc4me.US saying non of there parts are branded HPI so I could say they are aftermarket alternatives.
So now I’m a bit stuck as to what to do.
Things like screws, washers, flange shafts I’m not worried about but it is things like bevel gear differential set (cogs), 29T/9T differential bevel gear cogs is what I am worried about.
They come from China, would these be any good or would you all agree that I should stick to genuine orginal HPI parts for cogs, bearings etc??
See the links of the items I was about to place an order for.
I know rc4me.us are in this group and I appreciate there transparency but for me I need to know if these aftermarket Chinese stuff is any good ?

These are the inside gubbings
