You could try an RPM wing mount, which seem to be more flexible than the factory wing mount.

Get yourself a bunch of M3 screws from Amazon or from Jenny's RC. Won't be the last time and piece mealing screws is not very economic.

Look in the manual and exploded view and see what are mostly used. The last three digits on the arrma part numbers for screws are usually the sizes. m3x20mm and that one has a 320 at the end. I bought several packs of the hardware from broken down trucks to start with. They come with the spacers and other odds and ends that you may need down the road. I'd probably start there even if it is a little more and you'll see in time what you are using the most. I had to buy m3x12's and 16's i believe extra. I separated them out in a little divider thing so i could keep track of what i needed. One thing to think about with the aftermarket wing mounts, If you go aftermarket on the shock towers they may not fit the rpm or tbone wing arms like i found out with the M2C rear towers.

I would get this button head set, the screws are 12.9 instead of 10.9. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07Q45TMDG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Other than a few 17-4 stainless screws I never buy anything but 12.9.... I’ve been buying from boltdepot.com as of late. They aren’t the cheapest but the quality is 2nd to none

 

[jkflow]

Not disagreeing with higher quality. My reasoning for using mine is that they all screw into plastic and plastic strips before strength is an issue. Only a few places where high strength is of actual benefit.
By all means you will never pick the wrong one if you only have the better ones.

I tend to lean towards 12.9 for my larger rigs, 10.9 seems to bend or break before anything else does. For the 1/10 and smaller stuff I haven't noticed a difference to be honest.
