JConcepts F2I 1/8th off-road wing

New from JConcepts is the F2I rear wing for 1/8th scale off-road buggies and trucks. F2I relates to Finnisher related items morphing into a 2nd generation and this new wing fits the bill perfectly. Adding the “I” relates to it being IFMAR competition legal in terms of its side-dams being large enough to comply with rules and procedure on the world-wide racing scene. Aerodynamics are quite the buzz and the design of the wing is rather traditional with a flat base. Across the width, the five individual dividers add straight-line stability and connects the upper and lower deck. Drop louvers on each side split the deck-height funneling air flow through the core and up to the gurney. The industry first design featuring a built-in gurney eliminates the need to add additional pieces, hardware or items which are clumsy. As with all JConcepts injection moulded wings, the side dams are recessed for decals to rest without being exposed directly across its plane. The offset decal plane also provides some stability to the highly impacted area and removes a slight about of weight. To make mounting easier, JConcepts has added a handy grid area underneath to help position the wing side to side and fore and aft for the utmost versatility. The wing is available in white, black and yellow colour.

Made for the use with the F2I wing is a polycarbonate centre divider that is a simple, yet effective way to provide additional stability and performance. The divider can be trimmed and adjusted to alter the height in order to match conditions at hand. The part is lightweight and features the JConcepts leading edge wing chamfer which match existing side-dams. Special consideration has been made to line-up with the F2I wing to fit just under the gurney and tuck just into place.
