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

The GPM MAKX187R rear dampers are CNC minded components that reinforce the rear suspension of the ARRMA KRATON 8S.

Engineered for hobbyists who value precision and longevity, these dampers offer reliable shock control and straightforward preload tuning to refine rear traction and balance.
What machining tolerances are important for these dampers?
Critical tolerances include shaft runout, body bore concentricity and thread fit for the preload collar; these affect seal life and damping consistency.
Can I upgrade springs or oil for different track conditions?
Yes, swapping coil diameter or spring rate and altering damper oil viscosity are standard tuning steps to adapt rebound and compression to specific surfaces.
Are spare seals and shafts available?
Service parts such as seals, shafts and springs should be sourced to match the MAKX187R dimensions to retain intended performance and serviceability. Write Product Review Please sign in your account before you can write any review.
