The right wing to keep your Scaleauto Skoda Fabia R5 always on point
When a wing breaks, bends, or simply disappears after a spectacular off-track incident, the finish of the car is incomplete and the realism suffers. This Scaleauto wing (reference SC-3630A20) is made of flexible rubber specifically for the Skoda Fabia R5 in 1/32 scale, ensuring a precise fit and a faithful replacement to the original appearance of the model.
Function and performance
Flexible rubber is the ideal material for wings on competition slot cars: it absorbs impacts and minor scrapes without chipping or breaking cleanly, as occurs with rigid plastic parts. This translates into a more durable piece in the day-to-day of the track and easier to remove or reposition during body adjustments.
Compatibility
This part is designed exclusively for the Scaleauto Skoda Fabia R5 models in 1/32 scale. Before placing your order, check the reference of your car to confirm that it corresponds to the version for which this wing is intended.
Assembly and preparation
The assembly does not require special tools. The flexibility of the material facilitates fitting into the body anchors. If it is to be glued, it is recommended to use a small amount of low-viscosity cyanoacrylate adhesive, applied precisely to avoid staining the painted areas of the model. A toothpick or a modelling needle is useful for dosing the glue.
Common mistakes
- Using excessive adhesive: the rubber is porous and easily absorbs cyanoacrylate; a small drop is sufficient.
- Forcing the fit: although the rubber is flexible, incorrect alignment can hinder the proper closure of the body.
- Confusing the reference: Scaleauto produces different versions of the Fabia R5; always verify that the wing corresponds to your exact reference number.
Frequently asked questions
Is this wing compatible with all Scaleauto Skoda Fabia R5 models?
It is designed for the Scaleauto Skoda Fabia R5 in 1/32. However, Scaleauto may have several versions of the same model, so it is advisable to verify that the reference SC-3630A20 corresponds to your specific car before placing the order.
Does the flexible rubber withstand impacts on the track well?
Yes. The main advantage of rubber over rigid plastic is its ability to deform and regain shape after a light impact, which reduces the frequency of breakage in track accidents.
Do I need to paint the wing after assembly?
It depends on the finish of the wing and the condition of the original you are replacing. If the part arrives unpainted or with a finish different from your body, you can paint it with paints compatible with rubber or flexible plastic, such as those from the Vallejo or Tamiya ranges.
Can it be mounted without glue?
If the body anchors are in good condition, in many cases, the pressure fit itself is sufficient. Glue would only be necessary if the original fixing points are damaged or if you want to secure the piece permanently.
