Badbilly Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 Being the lover of Audi TT's that i am, and them being on the scarce side nowadays, i bought a SCX digital "Sline" DTM version. The sales assistant told me that it would work on both digi and analog and not knowing any better, stupidly(?), believed him! Well suprise, suprise... it doesn't work with analog and that my fall back position of just removing the chip dosent appear to be the unplug n discard job i had envisioned. Is there an easy conversion for these cars or should i just sell it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussieslotter Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 SCX digital track is even totally different from SCX analogic. Take it back where you bought it. Quote On chips, we have simply too many to create a video-log. As mentioned earlier in this thread, some were dead-on-arrival, some had no brakes, some had a range with the of about 30cm, some when hooked up to a light kit had only rear lights but not front lights (light kit and LEDs worked perfectly when tested with another chip) and so much more. www.scorpiuswireless.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badbilly Posted July 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 Hi Aussieslotter thanks for the reply but unfortunatly thats not really an option as i bought it on a walkabout n not expect to be back that way for months besides it being a TT-R id like to keep it if i can somehow get it working.

dangermouse Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 have a look on youtube this one tells you how to make analog to digital so I guess you could just try reversing the process :( talks about 2008 cars which are digital/analog compatible I haven't done this (I don't have SCX digital cars) but I would imagine once you take the chip out you may need to solder some wires from the guide pickups to the motor pickups cheers DM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badbilly Posted July 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 Hi Dangermouse i didnt think to search you tube so thanks for the links... after looking at the clips of whats involved its apparent id need another chassis for donor parts as even the front axels need to be changed so i might as well just off load it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
