Kraton Wing mount upgrade complete

[B2Humla]

I had it like this for some time but the threads in the gear box wears out. The original screws are just M3x12mm so not a lot of grip.
I am back to original setup, have some wing mounts in spare and will look for something else in the future if neede. Something with more flex
maybe like that from 3d-rc.myshopify.com

In the future, hope Arrma would make something with more flex.

Have @Lovestricken mount installed for the past 3+ weeks. Bent my rear shock tower on my k6s rtr and the wing mount is completly unscathed. Would absolutely recommend!

Looks Nice honing to try that bit hou dus you get the rpm wingmount with the m2c brace ?
Because IT Will not fit so how did you do IT?

Is English your first language? I'm not 100% sure what your asking.

If your asking how to fit the RPM mount with the M2C tower brace, I had to grind my RPM mounts so the tower brace would swing down. I could have swore I saw others that didn't have to do that, but I did on my outcast.

I didn't see a location under your user, so wasn't sure. Glad I was able to help.

I've heard that before. Makes me wonder why. Do you know the part # for the RPM mount you used? I wonder if they have more than one like Arrma does and they are shaped different.

Got the flexable from 3d-rc.myshopify.com, here is a short video showing the flex.

The first impression is the best. Just need some time and batteries to test it.

that's from a 3d printer?

 

[3d-rc.myshopify.com]

Yes and cheaper then any other aftermarket.

Got mine installed the other day... while installing it, I found that my HR rear chassis brace was tweaked. Had a hell of a time getting the stupid bolt/pin out of it. I hammered it straight on my vice before putting it back together.

The new wing mount is less of a functional "wing mount" and more of a "rubbery bumper thing", which works well for me.

I'm not 100% sure what the wooden puck included with the mount is for though... seems a bit large for a key ring thing.

It's nice and I feel like I need to do something with it! lol!

Use your imagination lmaooooo. You didn't throw your sticker away did you? Lol.
Use the wooden thingy as a marker to jump further then the last attempt eat it and add more fiber to your diet if you have to

No, kept the sticker. Intend on putting it on my outcast body somewhere. Got to represent my sponsors!

Finally completed wing mount repair plus upgrades.
Trying RPM mounts this time with Traxxas turnbuckles attached to hinge pin cover at the bottom and inside screws at the top. I also beefed up the shock tower by using longer lower screws through the bulkhead with nylock at the end. Installed MC2 tower brace to complete the build.

What Traxxas car are those turnbuckles from?

Don't know they're 90mm long I think.
RPM has come out with a wing mount for the Kraton. I am going to get one.
