Overview
The VITAVON Adjustable Carbon Fiber Wing And Wing Mount For Arrma Kraton 8S represents a premium upgrade for serious RC enthusiasts in the UK who demand the best performance from their high-powered RC monster trucks. This specialist component is engineered specifically for the Arrma Kraton 8S platform, one of the most capable brushless 4WD RC vehicles available. Whether you're a seasoned basher, a competitive racer, or an experienced RC hobbyist looking to optimise your Kraton's aerodynamic performance, this adjustable wing system delivers both stunning visual impact and genuine functional benefits that can transform how your truck handles at speed.
Constructed from genuine carbon fibre for the wing itself, combined with a precision-machined aluminium 7075 mount system, this product exemplifies the kind of quality engineering that separates premium RC aftermarket components from budget alternatives. The adjustable wing mount design allows you to fine-tune the angle and height of your wing, giving you the flexibility to adapt to different track conditions, driving styles, and performance requirements. For UK RC car enthusiasts who take their hobby seriously, this is the kind of upgrade that delivers measurable improvements in handling, stability, and downforce at speed.
Unlike generic wing solutions, the VITAVON system is purpose-designed for the Arrma Kraton 8S and is not compatible with stock wing mounts or stock wings—this ensures perfect fitment and optimal performance without compromise. The silver and black colour scheme complements the Kraton's aggressive styling whilst the real carbon fibre construction keeps weight to a minimum, a critical consideration for maintaining your truck's dynamic balance and responsiveness.
Key Features
- Real Carbon Fibre Wing — The wing itself is manufactured from genuine carbon fibre rather than plastic or cheaper composite materials, providing superior strength-to-weight ratio, better aerodynamic efficiency, and the durability needed for serious RC bashers and competitors in the UK who demand components that will survive repeated high-speed impacts and outdoor use.
- Adjustable Wing Mount System — The mounting bracket allows you to adjust the wing angle and height, enabling you to optimise downforce and aerodynamic balance for different track conditions, weather, and driving styles, which is essential for anyone serious about extracting maximum performance from their Arrma Kraton 8S.
- High-Quality Aluminium 7075 Construction — The mount assembly uses aerospace-grade aluminium 7075, one of the strongest aluminium alloys available, ensuring the wing mount will not flex, bend, or fail even during aggressive driving, high-speed runs, or competitive racing with your RC monster truck.
- Kraton 8S Specific Design — This component is engineered exclusively for the Arrma Kraton 8S platform (models ARA110002BT1 and ARA110002BT2), guaranteeing perfect fitment without modification and ensuring you get the aerodynamic benefits the designer intended for your specific vehicle.
- Silver and Black Colour Scheme — The stunning silver carbon fibre with black aluminium accents complement the Kraton's aggressive aesthetic whilst providing excellent visual contrast and a premium appearance that reflects the quality of your RC setup.
- Not Compatible with Stock Components — VITAVON's engineering means this wing system does not fit stock Kraton wings or mounts, and stock components will not fit this system—this ensures you're getting a complete, optimised solution rather than a compromise component.
Technical Performance
The VITAVON Adjustable Carbon Fiber Wing And Wing Mount system represents engineering excellence in RC aerodynamics and materials science. The real carbon fibre wing provides superior rigidity compared to plastic alternatives whilst maintaining minimal weight addition to your Arrma Kraton 8S—a critical consideration given that the Kraton 8S is already a high-performance 4WD monster truck platform with significant power delivery from its brushless motor system. The aluminium 7075 mount is a premium aerospace-grade alloy chosen specifically for its exceptional strength, hardness, and resistance to fatigue, properties that matter when you're mounting a large aerodynamic surface on a vehicle capable of speeds exceeding 80 km/h and subject to the extreme stresses of off-road bashers, jumps, and competitive racing. The adjustable mounting system allows you to modify the wing's angle of attack, a feature that directly influences how much downforce the wing generates and how your truck's weight distribution and handling characteristics change during acceleration, cornering, and braking. For serious RC enthusiasts and competitors, this level of tuneability transforms a simple bolt-on accessory into a genuine performance tool. The precision manufacturing throughout ensures zero play in the system, meaning every adjustment you make will be retained and every bit of downforce the wing generates will be transferred directly into improved grip and stability rather than being wasted through flex in inferior mounting hardware.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is this wing compatible with my Arrma Kraton 8S? — Yes, this wing system is specifically engineered for the Arrma Kraton 8S (models ARA110002BT1 and ARA110002BT2). However, it is not compatible with stock Kraton wings or mounts, and stock Kraton wings will not fit this VITAVON mount system, so you must commit to using the complete VITAVON system.
- What makes this better than cheaper plastic wing alternatives? — This wing is constructed from genuine real carbon fibre rather than plastic, providing superior strength, better aerodynamic properties, improved durability under high-speed use, and minimal weight addition. The aluminium 7075 mount is aerospace-grade material far stronger and more rigid than plastic mounts used in budget alternatives, ensuring your wing stays precisely positioned during aggressive driving.
- Can I adjust the wing angle after installation? — Yes, the wing mount is specifically designed to be adjustable, allowing you to modify the wing's angle and height to optimise downforce and handling for different track conditions, weather, and your preferred driving style, making this a genuinely tunable performance component rather than a fixed bolt-on accessory.
- Will this wing add much weight to my Kraton 8S? — The carbon fibre wing and aluminium mount combination has been engineered to minimise weight whilst maximising strength, so weight addition is kept to a practical minimum for a component of this size—the benefit to aerodynamic stability and downforce at speed will typically outweigh the minimal mass penalty, especially if you're running your Kraton at high speeds or on racing circuits.
- Is this suitable for bashers or only for racing? — This wing is suitable for any serious Kraton 8S owner, whether you're a weekend basher enjoying high-speed off-road driving, a competitive racer, or an experienced RC enthusiast who demands premium components. The real carbon fibre and aluminium 7075 construction will survive the demands of both casual bashers and competitive use.
- What tools do I need for installation? — Standard RC model building tools including hex wrenches and screwdrivers will be required, along with the included fasteners and mounting hardware. No specialist equipment is necessary for installation on your Kraton 8S.
