The XO-1 platform is renowned for its speed and agility, and pairing it with this precision-engineered wing takes its dynamic capabilities to the next level.

Built from genuine Traxxas Lexan material, this wing is engineered to withstand the demands of high-performance RC driving. Lexan is chosen by professional RC car manufacturers and competitors across the UK and worldwide because it offers superior durability, impact resistance, and optical clarity compared to standard plastic alternatives. The wing's aerodynamic profile has been carefully designed and tested to generate downforce that keeps your RC car planted during acceleration, braking, and cornering, resulting in improved traction and more predictable handling dynamics. This is particularly valuable for 1/7 scale RC cars, where aerodynamic efficiency becomes increasingly important as speeds increase.

RC Model Shop stocks this genuine Traxxas component for customers serious about upgrading their RC car UK setup. Whether you're running your XO-1 on tarmac, in competitive events, or on varied terrain, this high-downforce wing is the authentic factory upgrade that Traxxas engineers recommend for drivers seeking maximum aerodynamic performance and stability at speed.

Key Features

• High-Downforce Aerodynamic Design — This wing is specifically engineered to generate downforce, which presses your RC car down onto the track surface, increasing traction and grip, especially during high-speed cornering and acceleration, resulting in faster lap times and more stable handling characteristics.
• Genuine Traxxas Lexan Construction — Manufactured from premium Lexan polycarbonate material, the wing offers exceptional durability and impact resistance, ensuring it maintains its shape and performance even after multiple crashes or intense driving sessions, making it a long-term investment for serious RC enthusiasts.
• XO-1 Specific Design — This wing is purpose-built for the Traxxas XO-1 1/7 scale supercar platform, ensuring perfect fitment and optimised aerodynamic performance that matches the vehicle's suspension geometry and weight distribution for maximum effectiveness.
• Complete Hardware Package Included — The wing arrives with all necessary mounting components, including left and right wing washers, two wing mounts, washers, and all required fasteners (4x10mm and 4x12mm screws), meaning you have everything needed for immediate installation without additional purchases.
• Precision Wing Mounts — The included wing mounts are engineered to securely attach the wing to your XO-1's chassis whilst maintaining precise aerodynamic angle of attack, ensuring the wing functions exactly as Traxxas engineers intended for optimal downforce generation.
• Left and Right Wing Washers — These washers ensure balanced pressure distribution across the wing mounting points, preventing stress concentration that could cause cracking or failure, and they help maintain the wing's aerodynamic profile over extended use.
• Professional Grade Component — This is a factory Traxxas upgrade used by competitive RC drivers and racing teams, so you're installing the same aerodynamic solution trusted by professionals for improving vehicle performance and lap time consistency.
• Easy Installation — The straightforward mounting system allows you to install or remove this wing in minutes, making it perfect for drivers who want to experiment with different aerodynamic setups or quickly swap wings between vehicles.

Technical Performance

This high-downforce wing is engineered for the Traxxas XO-1 1/7 scale platform, a vehicle renowned for its exceptional speed and performance capabilities. The Lexan construction provides the optimal balance between rigidity and flexibility—stiff enough to maintain its aerodynamic profile under load, yet flexible enough to absorb minor impacts without shattering. The wing's design generates downforce through its curved profile, which creates differential air pressure above and below the wing surface, effectively pressing the vehicle down onto the track with increased force. This increased downforce translates directly into improved traction, allowing the XO-1's high-performance suspension and drivetrain to deliver power more effectively. The wing washers work in conjunction with the mounts to distribute clamping force evenly, preventing stress concentration at mounting points that could eventually lead to failure. The included fasteners—both 4x10mm and 4x12mm screws—are precision-engineered to secure the wing firmly whilst allowing for proper adjustment of the wing's angle of attack. For competitive RC car UK drivers and serious enthusiasts, this aerodynamic upgrade represents a measurable performance gain, particularly noticeable on faster tracks where aerodynamic stability becomes more critical. The Lexan material resists UV degradation and maintains clarity, allowing you to inspect the wing's condition and spot any debris or damage that might affect performance. Whether you're driving on tarmac, concrete, or mixed surfaces, this wing maintains consistent aerodynamic performance across varying conditions, making it a versatile upgrade for the serious XO-1 driver.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Will this wing fit my Traxxas XO-1 RC car? — Yes, this wing is specifically designed for the Traxxas XO-1 1/7 scale supercar platform. It features precision-engineered mounts that match the XO-1's mounting points exactly, ensuring perfect fitment without modification. The complete hardware package is included, so installation is straightforward.
• What is Lexan and why does Traxxas use it for this wing? — Lexan is a premium polycarbonate plastic material chosen by Traxxas for its exceptional combination of properties: it's significantly more durable than standard plastic, it resists impact and cracking better than acrylic or polystyrene, it maintains optical clarity so you can see through it, and it resists UV degradation from sunlight. These properties ensure your wing maintains its shape and performance characteristics over extended use and multiple seasons of driving.
• How much downforce does this wing generate? — The exact downforce figures depend on speed and driving conditions, but Traxxas has engineered this wing profile specifically to maximise downforce at the XO-1's typical operating speeds whilst avoiding excessive drag that would reduce top speed. The aerodynamic profile creates measurable improvements in cornering grip and stability, particularly noticeable during high-speed runs and competitive driving.
• Is installation difficult, and do I need special tools? — Installation is straightforward and requires only basic tools—typically just a hex key or small wrench to tighten the provided screws. The wing mounts align precisely with the XO-1's chassis, and the complete hardware package is included, so installation takes just a few minutes. No drilling or modification to your vehicle is necessary.
• Will this wing improve my lap times? — Yes, aerodynamic improvements directly translate to better performance, particularly on faster track layouts and during high-speed driving. The increased downforce improves traction during acceleration and braking, gives you more confidence in cornering at speed, and helps maintain consistent driving lines. Many competitive RC drivers report measurable lap time improvements after installing aerodynamic upgrades like this wing.
• Can I use this wing on other Traxxas models? — This wing is specifically engineered for the XO-1 1/7 scale platform. Whilst it may physically attach to other Traxxas vehicles, it is optimised for the XO-1's suspension geometry, weight distribution, and handling characteristics. For best performance and fitment on other models, we recommend using Traxxas components specifically designed for those vehicles.
• How do I maintain this wing? — Lexan wings require minimal maintenance. Simply rinse away dirt and debris with water after driving sessions, dry with a soft cloth, and store away from direct sunlight when not in use to preserve the material's clarity and structural integrity. Inspect regularly for cracks or damage that might affect aerodynamic performance.
• What is the difference between this high-downforce wing and other wing options? — Traxxas designs different wing profiles for different performance priorities. This high-downforce version prioritises grip and stability over top speed, making it ideal for drivers who value cornering performance and consistent handling. Other wing options may offer different balance points between downforce and speed, so your choice depends on your driving style and the track conditions where you primarily drive.
