Talion Wing on my Talion went off

Hi ,

wing on my Talion went off. I am not shure how to repair this (see pic).
Thanks for help.

Use a dremel to cut a slot or get a small screw extractor set

no need. you can remove just the shock tower (remove the 2 lower screws that still hold it) and then you'll have access to the sheared screws. use some pliers to remove them.

Agree.

Also, look into getting a @3d-rc.myshopify.com wing mount to avoid this headache in your future bashing sessions..

German horizonhobby. It is 2 years old.

Unfortunately this will be a very common occurrence, for me every 5 to 10 packs either I break the screw or break the wing mount. You can extend the time between fix by using a RPM wing mount (the older design) as it is more flexible. But it will still break. One of these days I will also try boiling the part in water but never got around to this.
There is the 3d rc wing mount which is 3d printed with TPU and supposed to be even more flexible but I am not sure whether you can get it easily in Germany. Everything comes with a price I suppose.

I am basically now a RPM wing mount "subscriber", I buy them by them 2-4 pcs at a time, if there is a sale I buy even more.

rpm don't do a talion wing mount. sounds to me like you need to learn how to drive I've broke about 3 maybe 4 talion wing mounts in 4ish years

It really depends on how you land and how much weight you've added to the car. in my experience it hardly never happens, would it be better if Arrma redesigned the diff housing to use m4 screw? yes. but it's really not a big issue IMO.

This link Rpm website says the wing mount is compatible with Talion? I thought it wasn’t too.


But no I have learned from this very forum that if you don’t break it you’re not doing it right.
