Well...if it was a bad batch, how could I tell? Knowing George he'd replace them in an instant if it really was a bad batch.
I would have thought my Stock Revo equpiment (Arms, skid) would have broken well before the X-Braces would have bent...
The front of that is lined up with the front of the lower plate and the part of the front skid where it bolts to the X-Brace. You can see at about the third battery slot the chassis plate bends away (I have the plate bolted on, so it reflects the bend of the braces)
