Dreanfligth Ahi Fast Wing Assembly

just wanted to share a new mod I’ve been testing on my DreamFlight Ahi!

I recently added a magnetic wing connection system that makes attaching and detaching the wings super easy — way better than the stock setup.

Before this, disconnecting the wings was honestly a pain. I always felt like I was going to damage something or needed tools nearby just to take it apart. Now, with this magnetic system, it's a simple pull or snap and you're done.

Here are some of the advantages:

Fast and tool-free disassembly

Strong magnetic hold during flight — wings stay perfectly locked in

Clean and simple install — you don’t need to heavily modify the fuse

No more fiddling with screws or awkward alignments


It took just a bit of planning at the start, but overall it’s a very beginner-friendly mod if you’re comfortable with light customization.

Let me know if anyone wants details or pictures. I just thought I’d share in case someone else was struggling with the same thing. It really improved my experience with the Ahi!

For reference, the contact block is magnetic and the contacts are spring loaded and gold plated. The entire contact block has some float with the mounting system. Works really well. This is something I have found and wanted to put into our Trix glider, but Rafael is the one that put it to work and came up with a better mounting method!
