Just got some, will try them tomorrow. I have a pretty twitchy stock setup since I've been trying to get the on power push out of the car and hope this will help. I'll post first thoughts tomorrow, but likely will leave them on a bit and work with them since I like to make incremental changes and this is one.
Has anyone else tried these since? They're pretty available so I'd be surprised if people aren't running them.

The gull wings only make for less steering .
Not a bad , but if your looking for steering stay with the flat arm.

And it's not actually about how "much" steering there is, it's more about how the steering reacts. People took the gullwings out of the MM because they don't like how it would dump so much weight to the front and then corkscrew the front end with the gullwings. Putting the flat arms on the MM took away that initial edgyness. Putting them on the RM does not take away steering, in fact it gives it more of an aggressive feeling at turn in which a lot of people are looking for in the RM car.

Not sure what "corkscrew" means either. You mean it had too much off power steering?

Well those cheap body clips on the wing, pulled through the wing last night. I cut out a JC wing....and I could not even start the pins in to mount it. So I drilled out the body posts and used wing buttons to hold it on. Not overly happy with the results. Anyone know if AE's revised mounts will be out soon?

I agree. I'm going to the wing buttons myself once my parts get here. Just seems like a better way to do it.
#9297
I spent over mass on the upgrades , but I tell everyone the only must buy optional part is the Ti turnbuckles..
