The Kyosho SCW042-01 is a replacement wing mount shaft designed for 85WC Tomahawk models, provided as a spare to restore or maintain wing attachment points on compatible Tomahawk variants. It is intended to substitute the original shaft when it shows wear, bends, or has been lost in use.
Fitment applies to the 85WC Tomahawk designation in the product name; always confirm your chassis code before purchase. The shaft locates the wing, transfers clamp forces to the mounting assembly, and assists in keeping alignment under aerodynamic stresses at scale speeds.
Installation guidance for experienced hobbyists: remove the wing assembly, extract the old shaft, fit the replacement into the mount bore, and secure any retaining screws or clips. Confirm free rotation where applicable and check for endplay after fastening. Use the correct hex drivers and retainers specified for your model and avoid overtightening to prevent distorting the mount.
Service and tuning tips: inspect the shaft at bearing and mount contact points after intensive use and replace it if you detect excessive play or deformation. Make small, incremental changes when setting wing incidence, and re-check fasteners after each adjustment. Keep spare shafts handy to minimise downtime at events.
