As people are having problems with the current Mobius FRP lens housing where the older metal one did not give problems, I think the best course is clear. At the price level you envision, you don't need basic quality problems like that.
Although the switch to the FRP module for the Mobius lenses has been a disaster, it was clearly not the result of trying to save money on manufacturing costs. I believe it was genuine but failed attempt at offering a unique new design that weighed less than the metal lens modules in order to appeal to the demands of the RC market where a lighter weight camera is more desirable and where heat issues are less of an issue.
