Default Best Ball Cups available

I am wondering which Ball Cups (=Rod Ends, Ball Ends) to get for a b4

After a few searches on this forum, I didn't find a dedicated thread...

However, I found some info and the following cups mentioned:

# RPM
# LOSI
# JConcepts
# Associated #7230(b4 defaults) or #6274
# fastrax
# ... any other?

Main concern is quality such that they are not loose(no friction either) on the ball

Thanks for your opinion

For me it's ABEC 35. All price, all precision. You can chose what you like.

Unless I'm wrong, they are made by RPM. Are they not even the same as RPM?
