Nice X6 there fella! What wing mounts are they??

[jono83]

Look like losi ones to me

[Wonderflupke]

The wing is a JConcepts 7" on Losi XXX wing mount.

[MHeadling]

Does it change the way it handles/jumps not using the X6 wing??

hi .. was it a direct fit? did u had to realign the screws?
do u have the part number for this? cheers.

I think the losi wing mounts are a direct fit, i'm sure dan uses them with the Asarashi wing.

[super__dan]

Indeed, the holes in the tower are a direct fit for Losi mounts.

I'm going to be varying between the new squared shell and the Azarashi one when I can work out how much difference there is. Certainly with the stock shell and wing (cut low guerney) there is more rear bias in the car, and I am captain understeer as we all know

Yes, no changes to fit them, they fit perfectly, I think X-factory use the XX-4/XXX-4/XXX/XXX-BK2/XXX-CR wing mount in the beginning of the X-6 project, on the prototype (Paul can confirm this). I use the XXX models # LOSA-4222 who don't have the second hole.

I don't know if it change a lot, I never use the original X-6 wing. I think the JComcepts 7" give probably less traction on rear but the access to the shock's screws is easier.

Ready to go to Kiddy on sunday....just ignore spring set up ... used for indoors like this.

I have found using a standard shape wing to give a bit more high speed steering, especially on a low grip track like worksop, i found that on a sweeper the x6 wing would make the front end wash out at times. It's just another tuning option.

I would like to add i wasn't running any extra weight at all in the original 4 gear car and using a 3200 lipo.

Yep, early prototyping was done with the Losi mounts. Check it out: http://www.2wdrc.com/News/05-21-2006.htm

Man we've come a long way!

I've found that the standard X - 6 wing really helps lock in the rear end for me, especially coming out of corners. Combined with the JConcepts front wing my car jumps really well.... until it gets windy. Running outdoors over larger jumps the wind just grabs that big rear wing and has its way with it. At that point I usually take the front wing off, put on the losi mounts and go with a JConcepts "B4" wing (which one varies depending mostly on what's in my box).
