Engineering Notes

• Durability: 6061 T6 aluminium provides fatigue resistance for repeated load cycles while minimising added mass.
• Adjustability: Multiple drilled positions permit controlled variation of damper angle to tune roll and dive characteristics precisely.

What maintenance is recommended for this aluminium mount?

Inspect mounting screws regularly for tightness and check the aluminium for deformation after heavy impacts; clean grit from contact areas to prevent accelerated wear.

How does changing damper angle affect handling?

Altering the damper mounting angle changes leverage and damping response, which can reduce body roll or increase front-end grip depending on the selected hole position.

Are replacement fasteners standard sizes?

The kit uses standard stainless cap head screws and M4 lock nuts as listed; replacements are available from common RC hardware suppliers if needed. Write Product Review Please sign in your account before you can write any review. Sign In Close
