Amazing upgrade for my Kraton 6S (V5). You will need to use a few screws from the original wing mount, so if yours is all mangled with bent screws, you may need some additional hardware. Not the case for me but just something that crossed my mind while assembling. This RPM piece greatly enhances the rigidity of the wing area, as well as provides skid plate protection.
Fit and finish is excellent, and it looks awesome, however there are problems. You cannot run the wheelie bar, but that’s not the worse part. This stiffens up the wing mount too much. In a heavy bash session, you’ll absolutely destroy your wing because there’s no flex in the wing mount to absorb shock. I’ve roached two wings so far. I’d imagine it’s fine for normal running, but if you bash hard, you’ll eat wings. I’m taking the vertical beam out of mine to give it some flex. Otherwise, it’s very nice and well made.
I own two of these and broke one in a tail landing. The wing arm broke but nothing else. The rear mounting screws were mildly bent but didn't shear off. The skid plate brace really does a good job holding it together. My only complaint is my wheelie bar doesn't mount to it. This one is mounted on my Notorious, the other one is on my Kraton and has seen some serious abuse. It's still in one piece. I've had good luck with this wing mount and recommend it.
Reviewers, all verified owners of the black RPM Arrma 6S HD wing mount, agree on strong fit and finish and on added rigidity and skid plate protection for the wing area. The main point of disagreement is stiffness: one reviewer found it too rigid under heavy bashing, reporting two broken wings and removing the vertical beam to add flex, while another reported surviving a tail landing with only the wing arm broken. Two reviewers note the wheelie bar does not mount to this system. One reviewer advises checking for damaged original mounting hardware before installation. Reviews mention the Kraton 6S and Notorious models.
