Coming from Xray are adjustable front wings for the X1 formula car. Available in black or white colour the wings utilise 2-flap or 3-flap add-on segments to fine-tune the aerodynamics and thus the front downforce of the car. The ETS-legal wings fit Xray’s own X1 and also many other formula cars.

Leadfinger Racing have introduced their newly redesigned Tactic 1/10th off-road rear wing and stabiliser. The wing has a widened centre section to easily fit many popular platforms, and is specifically designed for a variety of today’s track surfaces; from indoor turf to outdoor clay. The vented design allows the wing to be left uncut for increased rear traction when needed; or can be cut out, allowing passing air to escape for higher traction conditions such as blue groove clay and turf tracks. When reaming multiple holes was the only option, the new performance enhancement of the Tactic wing allows for more precise tuning without the sacrifice of durability. Two pre-cut wings come per package.
3DRC from Germany have introduced their new 3-D-printed touring car wing button set. Included are aerodynamically-shaped wing buttons, 3 degree wedges and large surface 5.5mm nuts. The whole set weighs in at only 1.5g and it us thus perfect for the use with lightweight body shell. Using the optional angled shims will give the wing a larger attack angle and more downforce, resulting in increased rear end grip especially on low grip tracks. The set is usable with most of today’s competition touring car body shells and needed for completion are two M3x8mm flathead screws.
3DRC have expanded their range of 3-D-printed Formula Fan Boosters and diffusers by making these parts accessible for Serpent SF3 and YR-10 owners also. The Fan Boosters are available for 30mm fan units, which are intended for Formula racing classes, while the 40mm variant targets the new 200mm LMP class. The fan mounts attach to the rear motor pod and the 30mm variants are available with or without integrated diffusor while the 40mm booster is a non-diffusor affair.
Team Azarashi have revitalised their iconic Bravo wing set for 1/10th off-road buggies. The set includes a 4WD buggy front wing that makes for improved aerodynamics and front downforce while also protecting the shock tower, shock caps and carpet surface when the buggy is upside down. Also included is a low-drag rear wing that fits most of today’s 4WD buggies. The set is made out of thick heavy duty polycarbonate for improved durability and it is available now.
3DRC have further expanded their range of 190mm touring car rear wings by the new D-type wing. Of a more conventional design the wing sports extra flaps for improved airflow and maximised downforce. Dual mounting holes in standard “Protoform pattern” allow to use the 3-D-printed wing in a front or rearward position. Like all 3DRC parts the wing is available through the brand’s Shapeways store or at select model shops.
