That's my biggest problem with the changing wings idea...

ALTHOUGH. We got a hand-to-hand fighter, a melee weapon fighter, and a range fighter... What about (essentially, not literally) a mage archetype?

Like. Thero's Carnotaurus gives him fire punches and kicks. Quadro's Ankylo lets his make earthquakes with his hammer. Aqua's gun lets him shoot streams of water and the modes give him ice attributes. But what if Winged/Aeria form is purely elemental? It could legitimately "bend" the elements rather than harnessing them in a specific way. That could justify it as the mid-season upgrade or something, but doesn't make the other forms obsolete.

He could have Fire, Earth, Water, and Wind typed wings that on top of allowing flight each let him control the element unconditionally. YEAH, it sort of devalues Carnotaurus specifically, but that's only a natural victim of evolution.

For balance, this form could lack ANY heavy armor so that the other forms aren't too terribly affected by its existence. It wouldn't be durable enough for hand-to-hand like Thero, as tanky or equipped as Quadro, and doesn't posses the range of Aqua. BUT it's powerful enough in its own right to sort of be the equivalent to Formula, Kachidoki, All-Dragon, etc; the second to final form.

Finisher: Rider kick with fiery projections of the dinos

All the other forms are right, but this isn't quite.

-T-Rex: Increases physical strength and adds armor plating to thigh and bicep.
-Raptor: Increases speed and adds armor to the shin and claws to the feet.
-Spino: Adds armor to the lower arm equipped with forearm blades.
-Carnotaurus: Adds glowing armor spikes to the back and allows fire punches and kicks.
Finisher: Adds all of the armor parts on together and performs a fiery rider kick.
