Third evolution of the SLS printed chassis for the Scaleauto Lamborghini SC-63. Specifically designed for the RT3 motor mount, it improves mass distribution and mechanical grip so that every track session makes a difference.
The 3DP V.3 chassis that takes the Scaleauto Lamborghini SC-63 to the next level of competition
Within Scaleauto's range of 3D printed spare parts, this chassis in its V.3 version represents the ultimate tuning for those competing or wanting to maximise the Lamborghini SC-63 LMB Hypercar in 1/32 scale. SLS technology (selective laser sintering of polyamide) ensures a part with tight tolerances, a homogeneous surface, and significantly greater durability than conventional injection plastics.
Function and performance
The jump from V.2 to V.3 is not merely cosmetic. Scaleauto has revised the internal material distribution to achieve controlled torsional stiffness: enough for the car to perform well in fast corners and flexible enough not to lose grip in chicanes and technical sections. The result is more predictable behaviour at the limit, particularly noticeable on circuits with rapid direction changes.
The design is conceived from the ground up to accommodate the Scaleauto RT3 motor mount, allowing the motor to be positioned in either inline or anglewinder configuration depending on the tuning required for each track, without compromising the structural integrity of the chassis or stressing anchor points.
Compatibility
- Body: Scaleauto Lamborghini SC-63 LMB Hypercar (1/32 scale).
- Motor mount: Scaleauto RT3 mount.
- Material: High-strength SLS polyamide.
- Version: V.3, with refined geometry and anchor points compared to previous versions.
Assembly and preparation
As it is an SLS printed part, the surface finish is matte and slightly porous, which facilitates proper adhesion of adhesives and lubricants. Before the first use, it is advisable to check the body anchor points and, if necessary, use a micro-scalpel or fine file to ensure that the body fits without tension that could alter the geometry of the front suspension.
For adjusting the height of the front axle, the chassis incorporates the characteristic adjustment points of Scaleauto, allowing fine-tuning of the ride height without the need for special tools. It is recommended to work with the car on a flat reference surface to verify that all four support points of the chassis are level before tightening definitively.
Common mistakes
- Installing the RT3 mount without checking the pinion alignment: a misaligned pinion causes premature wear and power loss. Always check the crown-pinion gap with cigarette paper or similar.
- Over-tightening the body mounting screws: SLS is strong, but anchor points can crack if over-tightened. Firm adjustment, not forced.
- Ignoring chassis leveling: a twisted chassis penalises grip asymmetrically. A few minutes checking flatness saves many laps of adjustment on track.
Frequently asked questions
Is this chassis compatible with other Scaleauto LMDh Hypercar bodies?
We cannot confirm this, as each Scaleauto 3DP chassis is designed with the specific dimensions of the indicated body. In this case, it is designed for the Scaleauto Lamborghini SC-63 LMB. Check compatibility before installing it on another body.
What is the difference between the V.2 and V.3 of this chassis?
The V.3 incorporates adjustments in internal geometry and body anchor points to improve mass distribution and torsional stiffness. The goal is more predictable behaviour on track, especially on technical layouts.
Can I use the motor in sidewinder configuration with this chassis?
This chassis is specifically designed for the Scaleauto RT3 mount, which allows inline and anglewinder configurations. A different approach would be needed for sidewinder. Check the RT3 mount documentation to confirm available motorisation options.
Is SLS material more fragile than injection plastic?
No, on the contrary. Laser-sintered polyamide offers superior mechanical strength and fatigue resistance compared to most injection plastics used in standard slot car chassis. However, like any polymer, it can be affected by aggressive solvents, so avoid applying unapproved cleaning products directly onto the chassis.
What mount should I purchase separately?
You need the Scaleauto RT3 motor mount, which is sold separately. This chassis does not include the mount, motor, guide, braids, or any other additional components.
Is it valid for racing on Sport track?
The chassis itself is compatible with any circuit, as the adaptation to the type of track depends on the installed guide. The Sport track is the standard used by Scaleauto and Slot.it, making it the usual environment for this type of tuning components.
