I made some with zip tie cables, they worked ok but they were a little too stiff.
Im gonna make some out of a plastic milk jug next and see how they work, should be softer !

the ones i found that work the best, are using the stock wing, since it falls off anyways and in my case didnt need it..

i had a shampoo bottle....cut the flat side out of the shampoo bottle...then took my drimmle and grined it down to size....it works great so far...they aren't to stiff and not to soft...

Use some left over lexan from a body. That is exactly what Losi used. It is just the right amount of flex to still be funtional as a steering servo savers.

When these little cars were released I sold around 500 sets of these fix's right away. Not 5 days later there were about 6 people selling them. They are simple to make and install. Zip ties seemed to work best for bashing. My kids still have not broke one....and they bash the crap out of them.
