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

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!
