I'm wif ya homie.

I echo that I use K wings, those and the Pro-Line wings are the best plastic.

Here's a picture of the Storm wing mount:

If you see, the wing mounts to the two platforms and e-clips hold it in place.

The wings usually crack on the outside edges of the wing mount's platforms. All it takes is one or two flips and it's all over.

I had hoped that the proline wing would hold up better then the GS wings, but it didn't.

I've been keeping my eyes open for something I could do to help spread out the pressure on the wing. At first I was looking at replacing the whole wing mount but buggy wing mounts differ greatly. So now I'm thinking of perhaps just replacing the top platforms with something else since they are removable.

I mean, it doesn't help that the track over here is almost as hard as cement but I don't see the Mugen guys busting their wings every race.

I'll definately check out a Kyosho wing too; wings aren't that expensive but I only have so many stickers =) Hope they fit.
