Klinik RC have announced the release of their new wing saver buttons for all popular 1/10th off-road buggies. Made in house at Klinik RC from 3mm carbon fibre, the wing shims feature a unique 3-step and pocketed design, making them super light, while adding some bling and ensuring the rear wing lasts much longer.
JConcepts have introduced their next generation Aero S-Type 7” wide rear wing for 1/10th buggies. The wing includes options not yet seen before on a 1/10th off-road rear wing. An extended rear gurney lip makes tuning that much better for more grip on the loose surfaces while running the latest generation in off-road. The base of the wing design is built on the popular Aero wing but with new additions which make the wing more durable, more adjustable and ultimately a great tuning piece. The S-Type wing is a direct bolt-on piece for most 1/10th scale 2WD and 4WD off-road buggies. It features a long chord construction with revised section to incorporate some reinforced ribbing in the vertical plane below the over-hanging gurney. Cut-lines and dimpled locations are positioned throughout for trim and tuning options. The new 7” variant of the S-Type wing was used in competition during the 2019 IFMAR Worlds in Trencin, Slovakia for increased rear traction and it comes as a 2-piece set.
Coming soon from Pro-Line is their new pre-cut Air Force 2 HD 6.5” 1/10th buggy rear wing. The wing was designed with the latest in CAD technology to meet extreme performance and durability specifications. Huge radiuses on the wing corners prevent cracks from starting and allow air to flow smoothly over the wing for incredible performance. The wing is made from medium thickness polycarbonate for maximum strength while still being lightweight. Extra tyre clearance has been built into the wing to reduce tyre rub as much as possible during racing. The AF2 HD wing comes pre-cut, allowing for instant use after drilling the required mounting holes.

Its straight rear edge allows the air to force down evenly across the rear and it features a built-in 4 degrees base angle. Made from lightweight polycarbonate material the wing weighs in at only 16g.

RC Maker have introduced their new GeoCarbon wing mounting solution for touring cars. Developed for serious racers, it is designed to protect the wing, and wing strut in crashes, as well as provide maximum downforce and efficiency from the wing. The “L” shaped design can be switched to left and right to fit different bodies and wing positions, and offers rearward and outer wing chord support. Flexing of the wing in high speed straights and corners can lead to unpredictable handling. This is due to the wing folding back, but also, when the wing folds back the sides of the wing lift up to even further increase the detrimental impact. Our side facing supports minimise this lifting, which also in turn minimises flexing of the wing backwards. This creates an overall more stable wing in every direction! Also included is an adjustable carbon fibre support for under the bodyshell. This clamps the wing and body between two pieces of carbon, providing more support and stiffness. It can be shifted forward or backwards to suit different bodies and wing positions. The set is complete with two lightweight alloy screws and two lightweight alloy nuts to provide a lightweight, stable solution to mounting the wing.
