Key Features
- CNC Machine Manufactured Aluminium Construction — These wing posts are precision-engineered using CNC machining technology, ensuring ultra-precise tolerances and perfect fit every single time. This manufacturing process delivers consistency and reliability that hand-made or cast alternatives simply cannot match, which is why serious RC enthusiasts choose CNC-manufactured parts for their vehicles.
- Ultra-Precision Fit and Reduced Vehicle Weight — The superior engineering of these aluminium posts means they fit perfectly with your ARRMA chassis, eliminating play and improving overall handling. By replacing heavier plastic or cast components with lightweight aluminium, you reduce unsprung weight on your RC truck, which directly improves acceleration, braking response, and handling dynamics.
- Anodised Red Finish for Looks and Durability — The vibrant anodised red coating isn't just for aesthetics—anodising is an electrochemical process that significantly increases the hardness and corrosion resistance of aluminium. This protective layer means your wing posts will withstand impacts, dirt, mud, water, and UV exposure far better than bare or painted aluminium, keeping them looking sharp for season after season of RC bashing.
- Premium ARRMA OEM Component — These are official ARRMA parts engineered specifically for your vehicle model, guaranteeing compatibility and performance. You're not buying an aftermarket alternative; you're getting the exact component that ARRMA's engineers designed for your truck.
- Pair Pack of Two Wing Posts — This pack includes two wing posts, providing complete coverage for both sides of your RC vehicle's rear wing assembly, ensuring balanced aerodynamics and symmetrical appearance.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA Wing Post represents the pinnacle of RC component engineering. Manufactured from high-grade aluminium and finished with professional anodising, these posts deliver the kind of precision fit that makes a noticeable difference in how your RC truck performs on track or in the bash field. The CNC machining process removes any material inconsistencies, meaning every post is identical to the last, which is crucial for maintaining symmetrical handling and reliable performance across multiple runs. By reducing unsprung weight compared to plastic alternatives, these aluminium posts improve your vehicle's responsiveness to inputs and reduce suspension lag, particularly noticeable during acceleration and directional changes. The anodised finish provides a hard, corrosion-resistant surface that resists scratching, weathering, and the effects of dirt and moisture exposure—important for UK RC drivers who encounter variable weather conditions. These components are engineered to work flawlessly with ARRMA's suspension geometry, ensuring that your Talion, Typhon, or Kraton maintains the handling characteristics that ARRMA's development team intended.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which ARRMA vehicles are compatible with the Z-AR320217 wing posts? — These wing posts are specifically engineered for the ARRMA 1/7 Talion 6S EXB 4x4 RTR Speed Truck (model C-ARA7707V6T1), the ARRMA Typhon 6S V5 BLX (model C-ARA8606V5), and the ARRMA 1/8 TLR Tuned Typhon 6S 4WD BLX Buggy RTR in Red/Blue (model C-ARA8406). Always check your vehicle's model number before purchasing to ensure compatibility.
- Why should I upgrade to aluminium wing posts instead of keeping the plastic originals? — Aluminium offers several advantages over the standard plastic posts included in your kit. Aluminium is significantly lighter, which reduces unsprung weight and improves acceleration and handling response. It's also more durable and resistant to cracking or breaking during crashes, and the anodised finish is far more scratch and corrosion-resistant. Additionally, aluminium components give your RC truck a more professional, upgraded appearance that reflects your commitment to the hobby.
- Are these CNC machined posts more durable than cast or plastic alternatives? — Yes, absolutely. CNC machining produces superior precision and eliminates casting defects, porosity, and material inconsistencies. The anodised finish creates a hard protective layer that dramatically increases the component's resistance to corrosion, scratching, and environmental damage. If you bash or race your RC car regularly in the UK, investing in CNC-manufactured aluminium parts means fewer replacements and longer component lifespan.
- Will upgrading to these wing posts make a noticeable difference to my RC truck's performance? — You'll notice improvements in handling responsiveness and acceleration, particularly when you reduce weight across multiple components. While a single wing post upgrade is relatively minor in terms of weight savings, it's part of a comprehensive tuning approach that serious RC enthusiasts employ. The improved fit tolerance and precision engineering also contribute to more consistent handling across multiple runs.
- Can I use these posts with other ARRMA models not listed as compatible? — We strongly recommend using these posts only with the compatible models specified: the Talion 6S EXB, Typhon 6S V5 BLX, and TLR Tuned Typhon 6S 4WD BLX. Using parts designed for a different chassis may result in fitment issues, handling problems, or component damage. Always verify compatibility with the official ARRMA compatibility list.
- Is anodising better than paint for protecting aluminium RC parts? — Anodising is superior to paint in virtually every way for RC components. It's an electrochemical process that becomes part of the aluminium itself, creating a much harder and more durable protective layer. Paint sits on top of the surface and can chip or scratch away; anodising is integrated with the material. For RC vehicles that experience impacts, dirt, mud, and water exposure, anodised components maintain their appearance and protection far longer than painted alternatives.
