This is definitely one of those personal preferance subjects. Some like aluminum better, some just like the whole carbon fiber look. If you look through some of the threads throughout RCM you will find pros and cons for both. TDC57 has a Gorilla project/build with the carbon fiber accessories and his chassis snapped on one of his jumps during a bash session. Depending how bad you bend aluminum you may be able to bend it back and keep right on going. Once the carbon fiber breaks you are done. Game over purchase another $100 to $200 piece and start all over again. Either way just have fun and love what you are doing.
