Wing Tube FAQs

What size aircraft is this wing tube for?

This 25mm wing tube is typically used in mid to large RC airplanes, including many sport, scale, and warbird models.

Can I substitute a different size?

No. Wing tubes must match your aircraft exactly. Even small differences will result in improper fit and structural issues.

What does a wing tube do?

A wing tube (wing joiner) connects both wing panels and provides the structural strength needed during flight.

Why use carbon fiber?

Carbon fiber provides excellent strength-to-weight ratio, reducing flex while keeping your aircraft lightweight and stable.
