R Sky spares

Tue Jun 12, 2012 7:59 pm

I managed to break one of the sail to stand off connectors on my R Sky Frenzy. Does anyone know where in the UK i would be able to buy a replacement.

Try Richard at Tradewind. He no longer has parts on his web site, but I've bought these from him in the past.

why, just not buy new set of 3mm sail grabbers (any type you can easy get) and replace all.

This is looking like the likely solution. R sky sell the sail grabbers in packs of 10, which suggests to me, they break easily.

they work well together with screws after you drill them trough, if you want to make it more pro.
