Dyna Storm wing mounts
Dyna Storm wing mounts
Hi guys, how easy are these to find? I'm no Tamiya expert I'm afraid, and I've never tried to buy any rarer Tamiya part like this.
I don't want it for a Dyna Storm I'm actually trying to mount a Wing on a Traxxas Bandit like it would have been mounted on a TRX-1.
Basically trying to achieve this sort of wing mount:
Using a shock tower sort of like so:
And the Dyna Storm wing mount seemed ideal:
So? Impossible to find? Barking up the wrong tree? Is there an easier solution?

Re: Dyna Storm wing mounts
Pan cars use these, if you don't care about the look of them I would try there first

Re: Dyna Storm wing mounts
Those are hard to find. I found a couple of sets of the BRP bullet wing mounts at a hobby shop. Pretty sure those are discontinued but you might find some somewhere or on ebay.
Re: Dyna Storm wing mounts
OK cool
Found these in stock: http://www.lefthander-rc.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=21&products_id=444
Now oval RC racing here in the UK is totally different than it is the USA. So sadly I can't get hold of the part locally...

LOL! OK It doesn't seem like the most complex part in the world, I am sure there's an alternative somewhere with everyday hardware shop bits...

Re: Dyna Storm wing mounts
Well, a standoff (i get them from McMaster carr) has 2 threaded ends and comes in many lengths. If you drilled the wire holes in the side you could put a screw in one side and a grub in the other, it would cost you under a $1 for the standoffs. They are aluminum. Not sure about metric, but they have 4-40

Re: Dyna Storm wing mounts
Used on the Top Force too.
Hard to find now & if you do they cost a arm & a leg.
I use Losi wing mounts or Kyosho Lazer zx5.
Way better set up. No buttons or wire to deal with.

Re: Dyna Storm wing mounts
if you chose a standoff from mcmaster, I'd probably use 93330A515, 7/16" long, #4 screw. Of course, if you wanted metric, you could always do that. check electronic suppliers in your area, they have to sell standoffs. usually referred to as PCB standoffs, etc.

Re: Dyna Storm wing mounts
Did you ever find what you were looking for? I found a pair of basic wing mounts at the lhs and grabbed em, if you need them let me know
