So, aside from buying an "aftermarket" wheel/grip, where can i get a replacement grip for my Airtronics m8 (short of calling Airtronics directly).

Tried some local hobbyshops, but they wanted to sell me aftermarket wheels, that I am not found off. I once had a wierd "scalloped" wheel grip made I think by "Parma" that fit on my older 3ps that I loved, but can't find anything like it for my m8.

I also once saw a link on a magazine on how to "custom fit" a touring car wheel, but hrmph...

So.. got any suggestions?

dawg, if you need a new wheel foam I have a couple on some radios that are non functional i keep for parts , the wheels are futaba , but I know 1 the foam is not mounted so make me an offer on it and we can work some thing out.

Mits,

KIMBROUGH has/had the rubber 'grip' style wheel (Not sure if the still do or not, ,their web site is being revised.)

If it's just the foam style grip you need... we use to cut down front tire donuts...but a TOURING Foam Donut may be about the right width.

THATS IT!!!!!!!!!
