front wing?

losichris · #1 05-09-2011

just wondering what adv/dis advantages the front wings have?
also what they look like mounted, as ive got a square lexan thing in my kit, and im not sure if its the right one.

Helps keep the nose level in flight and perhaps gives a touch more steering.

The Jconcepts one is popular and looks like this:

Also check Big E's X6 from last year EPR national

you can make up a wing from any lexan u have around as i did i find it gives more on power steering throu the corner!!!!!

and works great in the wet !!!

+1 on more mid corner steering

Great addition

That's a Team AJ Galaxy body. Paul runs it too.

There seem to be two identical threads, and I apparently posted to the wrong one last night. So, a repeat:

Most Team drivers use, and we sell, the J Concepts front air dam. It's curved and bolts onto the back of the front shock tower with two screws provided in the package. We have them on our site (OM 0103) and I believe X Factory UK has them as well.

Helps with high speed steering and helps keep the nose down in the air.

yep what Chazz said!!! AJ galaxy!!!

both bodies work well !!!! i find that the Aj works well on our dirt tracks over here !!!! but if i want crazy down force and super rear grip ill run the kit body!!!!

ive also tryed the Jconcepts -proline front wing but prefer the handling of the car with the wing in front of the tower!!! as the car seems to carry more mid corner steering!
