Yeah it's more dense and harder,a 7075 part could be similar weight and strength but be smaller and harder but likewise a 6061 part could be similarly strong at the same weight but be physically larger in volume.so for the same part/same volume of material,the 7075 part would be stronger but heavier.something like that:005: .

I like the g-maxx design myself,looks like a very efficient use of material so it's as light (or lighter?) than stock yet very strong and has the lower CG.the intricate machining on the UE looks very nice though.
