RDRP B6-series aluminium wing mount set

Coming from Revolution Design Racing Products is new aluminium wing mount set for the Team Associated B6 and B6D buggies. The wing mounts are machined from high-quality 7075-T6 aluminium for improved rigidity and durability while the overall design, anodised surface and silver edge details make for visual impact. A connecting carbon fibre plate was machined at an angle, allowing to adjust the rear wing angle in order to further fine-tune aerodynamic downforce. On top of this does the large surface carbon plate let the wing rest on a more sturdy base than common wing mounts, prolonging the wing’s life while also optimising overall downforce. The wing mounts are available in black or blue anodising.
