Side repeater: Possible to convert Mk3 square to Mk3.5 oval?

Postby Excursion on Thu Jan 02, 2014 5:33 pm

All,
Is it possible to correctly modify a mk3 wing to suit a mk3.5 repeater i.e. is the mk3 repeater in the same place and is it of narrower height than the mk3.5 version?

Thanks

You could modify a MK3 wing to take a MK3.5 repeater but not the other way round as the hole would be to big for the square type repeater.

I'd personally stick to the standard (square) ones.

Cheers, this is actually for a Mk3.5 - I was asking because I had was Turbo wings and couldn't find Mk3.5 RS1800. I have since managed to find some new Mk3.5 wings.
