How It Works

This quick release connector allows pneumatic air lines to be connected and disconnected quickly without removing tubing from the system. It is especially useful on RC aircraft with removable wings where retract air lines need repeated assembly and disassembly.

Installation Notes

• Install in an accessible location for easy connection and removal
• Ensure tubing is fully seated before operation
• Use quality pneumatic tubing for best sealing performance
• Check for air leaks before flight
• Avoid excessive side-load pressure on the connector

Modeler's Tip

Installing quick release joints near the wing root can significantly reduce setup time at the flying field while helping protect air lines from repeated bending and stress during transport.

Recommended Use

Perfect for RC aircraft using pneumatic retract systems where removable wings or fast field assembly are important.
