RC Butterfly Wing Kit – Carbon Rods, Patterned Fabric & Connectors
$125.00
Description
Give a compatible RC bionic butterfly build its distinctive wing pattern with this carbon rod and fabric construction kit. Eight carbon rods in four diameters, patterned wing fabric and a pair of 3D-printed connectors provide the listed wing-building materials, while the packing photograph also identifies screws. Choose the printed design that suits your project, from soft pinks and purples to vivid multicoloured and naturalistic butterfly patterns.
This is a wing construction and replacement kit, not a complete aircraft or a ready-assembled wing set. Assembly and compatibility checks are part of the project. The current selection offers 12 designs: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, J, K, L and M. Each purchase is for the selected design, not all 12 patterns.
Why Choose This Wing Kit
- Grouped construction materials. The listed rod set, fabric and connector pair bring the wing materials together for a planned build or compatible replacement.
- Four specified rod sizes. Compare the diameter and length table with your assembly plan instead of choosing rods by appearance alone.
- A defined visual choice. Select one of the current printed designs to shape the look of your project without assuming a custom-printing service.
- Component-only clarity. Plan the flight mechanism, electronics and other build requirements separately rather than expecting a ready-to-fly butterfly.
What Is It For & How to Choose
Use this kit for a compatible carbon-rod butterfly wing build or replacement project. Start with your mechanism's wing geometry, attachment arrangement and assembly instructions, then compare the supplied rod dimensions. A similar butterfly outline does not establish that the kit fits every flapping-wing model.
For a repair, inspect the whole wing frame and its connection to the mechanism before replacing only the visibly damaged fabric. For a new build, separate the visual design decision from the engineering check: a preferred colour pattern does not establish the correct span, stiffness or operating load for your aircraft.
Each option supplies the same listed rod set and connector pair with the chosen fabric design. Select additional kits separately if you want several patterns; the gallery is a collection of design references, not a mixed-pattern package.

Component Size Guide
Compare both diameter and length with your build instructions. Lengths below are converted from the listed metre measurements into centimetres.
| Rod diameter (mm) | Length per rod (cm) | Quantity |
|---|---|---|
| 0.8 | 100 | 2 |
| 1.0 | 100 | 2 |
| 1.2 | 50 | 2 |
| 1.5 | 32.4 | 2 |
These are component dimensions, not assembled wingspan or a guarantee of compatibility. Confirm fit before modifying the materials.
Tips & Suggestions
Check the mechanism first
Compare the attachment arrangement and required wing geometry with your existing mechanism before choosing by print alone. A compatible rod diameter is only one part of the fit check.
Plan a replacement as a matched structure
When rebuilding damaged wings, inspect rods, fabric and connector attachment together. Follow the model's instructions for the complete replacement rather than assuming a fresh fabric surface resolves damage elsewhere.
Choose a pattern for the backdrop
For a display or photography project, consider whether pale pink, purple or a high-contrast naturalistic design will be most distinct against the intended background. This is a visual choice, not evidence of different flight performance between prints.
Organise the four rod sizes
Keep each diameter and length grouped before assembly. Lay out the pieces against your instructions so similar-looking slender rods are not interchanged by accident.
Protect the printed surface
Use a clean work area and keep sharp tools and rough objects away from the fabric. Support the material while handling it rather than pulling on a printed edge or a narrow wing section.
Prepare a visual spare
For a compatible build you use regularly, a separate kit can be planned as replacement material or an alternative pattern. Store it protected and label the design so the parts remain together for the intended project.
Inspect before operation
After assembly, follow the complete model's checks for alignment, attachment and clearance. Stop if rods are damaged, connectors are loose or fabric catches the mechanism; the kit alone does not establish that the aircraft is ready for flight.
Not Ideal For
Not a ready-to-fly butterfly, universal-fit wing replacement or wearable costume-wing set. Choose another solution if you need a fully assembled aircraft or cannot match the kit to your mechanism. Pattern choice does not guarantee a particular wingspan, stiffness or flight result.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the kit contain?
The listed contents are eight carbon rods, one selected wing fabric pattern and one pair of 3D-printed connectors. The packing image also identifies screws.
Which carbon rod sizes are included?
There are two rods of each size: 0.8 mm diameter × 100 cm, 1.0 mm × 100 cm, 1.2 mm × 50 cm and 1.5 mm × 32.4 cm.
Are all 12 fabric patterns included?
No. Choose one design per kit. The current options are A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, J, K, L and M; the listed rod set and connector pair are the same across options.
Is it a complete or preassembled butterfly?
No. This is a wing construction and replacement kit requiring assembly. The flight mechanism, controller and other operating components must be planned separately.
Will it fit every RC butterfly model?
Do not assume universal fit. Compare rod sizes, wing geometry and connector attachment with your model's build instructions before ordering or modifying the materials.
Important Notices & Storage
Printed designs and colour appearance vary with lighting and screens. Reference images show different patterns; select the desired option rather than expecting the whole collection.
Handle slender rods and printed parts carefully, and keep small components away from children and pets. Protect rod ends and store the materials supported in a protective container without forcing them into a bend. Follow the model-specific assembly guide and keep any powered mechanism disconnected during fitting.
Shipping & Delivery
Before Ordering
Check the chosen pattern and component measurements against your project plan. Leave time to inspect the materials and complete assembly before a planned display or demonstration.
Delivery Information
Review the delivery options and charges presented for your destination at checkout before completing your purchase.
Checking the Delivery
Inspect rods, fabric and printed parts for damage on arrival, and compare the contents with the listed kit before assembly. Keep the packaging while checking the received items and contact the store promptly if there is a problem.
Images illustrate design options and packing references. Component dimensions do not establish assembled wingspan, universal compatibility or flight performance.
