Available now from Fenix are high nose formula front wings. Made from sturdy ABS plastic and coming in black or white colour the wings also include additional flaps to fine-tune the aerodynamics. The wings can be run without the high nose support with the white one being dyeable using fabric dye.
3DRC have added another variant to their 190mm touring car rear wing line-up. The C-Type was developed with maximum downforce in mind. The straight-type wing features a gurney flap and stronger winglets which leads to increased downforce compared to the A and B-Type wings. The 3-D-printed wing fits all bodies with Protoform-style 100mm mounting pattern and it is available through the company’s Shapeways store and at select model shops.

HB Racing have introduced their new IFMR-legal 1/8th off-road wing. Sporting a lightweight construction with a weight close a polycarbonate wing, the moulded wing features large side dams that allow to attach 40x50mm IFMAR car numbers while a wicker bill helps tune downforce to the track conditions. The new wicker bill design eliminates the need for nuts for extra weight savings. Also included are four pairs of dimples moulded into the bottom of the wing to make mounting simple when using the popular HB one-piece wing mounts while also indicating four fore/aft mounting position choices. The wing is available in black, white and yellow colour.
3DRC have introduced their new Type A and Type B Aero rear wings for 190mm touring cars. The 3-D-printed downforce enhancers sport a full scale motorsport inspired design with dual flaps and inner plates that reinforce the whole structure while also guiding the airflow. The Type A wing features rearward shaped elements which make for a steeper angle in the middle and a lower angle on the sides while the Type B wing has forward bend flaps for a lower centre angle, giving the two wings different aerodynamic characteristics. Both are made for touring car bodies with 100mm screw distance, they feature 40x20mm side plates, double mounting holes for easy fore and aft adjustment, and at 10g they are light of weight. Strong and flexible yet not as forgiving as polycarbonate wings the parts are intended for the more experienced driver and like all 3DRC products they are available through Shapeways.
Mon-Tech Racing from Italy have introduced their new 2017 style formula front wing.

All needed flaps are included with the wing that is available in black or white colour and that fits most of today’s formula cars.
