They were wider than the ballistic or yokomo ones too.

Can't for the life of me remember the name of the company...

That sounds like the wings that were made by Artcrafts in Blackburn - they traded as Hobbytek or something like that.

The original wings you're all thinking of were made by Yokomo!

They came with the Super Dogfighter 93 or whatever it was - Look at pics of Masami's 93 Worlds winning car and it has an Orange one on it.

I remember it so clearly as we were racing at the Apex GP and my Dad bought a bright green one for my Cat 2000 - I thought it looked amazing haha.

The one thing i really remember is my Dad laughing at the fact it came with Instructions :lol:

I get a pair of them for bushing...and not to test my destructing skills.

In 8th scale they are the only type of wings available, why not in 10th? only a few grams heavier but tons harder.

I've got a 15 year old white plastic Kyosho one that I've just put on my Cat Sx, it's still nice and flexible too!
