SlotsNZ Posted June 21, 2023 Report Share Posted June 21, 2023 This is interesting - Slot.it are bringing out a carbon fibre motor mount, with a suspension setup on the side mounts and using the bearing mount system rather than the spherical gimbals. That means more cost (but you can use 3/16 oilites to save money), and a narrower overall width of the mounted axle. The carbon fibre should have an advantage over plastic of greater rigidity - angle-winder is pictured, let’s hope they do multiple offsets and sidewinder versions. I imagine the two sets of holes for motor mounting are simply as for Flat-6 vs. FK180 boxer motor. Maurizio F. is doing introductory videos. English is due out tomorrow so I will add a link. …. I was trying to follow his Spanish one today, but too many words I didn’t know. 1 Quote Custodian of many used screws (quite a few loose ) * Recovering Lapsed Slot Addict * Companion of other delusional slot addicts * Total kidder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe get an Olifer chassis for a Falcon XB and give it a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlotsNZ Posted June 23, 2023 Report Share Posted June 23, 2023 Video with Maurizio Ferrari introducing the new motor pod. They are as suspected, an injection moulded part, as a plastic and carbon fibre composite. Key elements - More rigid - lighter - 3gms vs. 4gms of the traditional plastic pods - Shaped at rear for a tungsten cylindrical weight behind the motor - Ball race mount - narrower at axle mount, than using the gimbal bush - Comes with snip off parts and double holes at the midpoint to set up an adjustable suspension system - 1.25mm offset (That raises the axle 1.25mm above the motor shaft) 1 Quote Custodian of many used screws (quite a few loose ) * Recovering Lapsed Slot Addict * Companion of other delusional slot addicts * Total kidder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlotsNZ Posted August 8, 2023 Report Share Posted August 8, 2023 As Slot.it prepare to display at the US Nationals, they have revealed one of the projects that will be on show. The long delayed Acura project is getting close with the moulds now complete. They have also confirmed that future models will come equipped with standard guides, thus phasing out the unpopular LMP guide which was created to enable a lower, more scale accurate model mould for these low profile models 1 Quote Custodian of many used screws (quite a few loose ) * Recovering Lapsed Slot Addict * Companion of other delusional slot addicts * Total kidder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlotsNZ Posted August 30, 2023 Report Share Posted August 30, 2023 I reported on the upcoming model Datsun 510 by Slot.it/Policar in front page news. My guess had been that it would have Policar branding, and come in their sets. WRONG - It has been allocated Slot.it code CA59, and the first release CA59a will be one of the BRE (Brock Racing Enterprise) < 2.5L Transam liveries - we just don’t know which one yet. So it will have alloy rear wheels. 1 Quote Custodian of many used screws (quite a few loose ) * Recovering Lapsed Slot Addict * Companion of other delusional slot addicts * Total kidder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing yet - but my guess based on current status, would be Q1 next year. I’ve ordered one each of the first two liveries and a couple of white kits so I can make up a house class - probably de-powered to 18k to suit that small shape on my track.
