Ordered flishrc cobra. Communication was great. Ordered larger batteries but they were the wrong size. Olly shipped the right batteries and gave a refund for the difference I paid. Couldn't ask for more. Thanks for the help with the order.

The seller knew I was after one and very kindly informed me when they came back into stock so now have a Flywing Bell 206. Fantastic bit of kit. Well worth the wait.

About this product
Front adjustable 70mm alloy shock
This front shock assembly is an RC-scale upgrade designed for the TAMIYA DT-04 RC FIGHTER NXGEN platform. The bodies are machined from 6061-T6 aluminium, filled with 500cSt silicon oil and finished with a sealed cap to limit leakage. The shock shaft is increased to 3.5mm diameter and the shock pin is hardened for greater wear resistance under repeated loads.
Key service and tuning roles: the unit reduces internal friction, helps absorb dynamic loads on the front suspension, and provides a taller, adjustable damper for fine-tuning ride height and spring rate. The black spring matches original fitment, while an included silver spring (1.1mm wire) offers a slightly stiffer alternative to change response without modifying the shock body.
Installation notes: these are front-position shocks with a 70mm centre distance and use the same mounting interfaces as the DT-04 front shock area. Basic installation uses the supplied hardware and replaces the stock front dampers; check existing shock eyelet spacing before final fitment and verify secure torque on the included grade 12.9 screws.
Packing includes
- Front Shock Absorber – 2pcs
- Silver Spring 1.1mm – 2pcs
- Grade 12.9 Black Round Head Screws 3×12 – 2pcs
- Grade 12.9 Black Round Head Screws 3×20 – 2pcs

Use this GPM front shock set when you need a durable, serviceable aluminium damper for the DT-04 front end where 70mm centre distance and a stiffer shaft are required for consistent front suspension behavior.
Is this shock set compatible with DT-04 front mounts?
Yes, the kit is produced for the TAMIYA DT-04 RC FIGHTER NXGEN front shock area and uses a 70mm centre distance matching the DT-04 front mounts.
What oil and shaft size does the shock use?
The dampers are supplied filled with 500cSt silicon oil and the piston shaft is a thickened 3.5mm diameter for improved stiffness compared to the original.
Can I change spring rates with the supplied parts?
The set includes the original-matching black spring and a silver 1.1mm wire spring that is slightly stiffer, allowing a simple spring swap to alter front response without modifying the shock body.
What hardware is included for installation?
The package includes grade 12.9 black round head screws in 3×12 and 3×20 sizes for secure attachment, along with the two front shock assemblies and spare springs. Write Product Review Please sign in your account before you can write any review.
