Extension for RT3 Anglewinder Motor Support

Motor Mount Extension RT3 Anglewinder: the exact fit your Scaleauto needs

When tuning a slot car, every component of the drivetrain matters. This Motor Mount Extension RT3 Anglewinder from Scaleauto (ref. SC-6538) is the specific part to complete or replace the RT3 motor mount in anglewinder configurations, maintaining the motor's working angle and the mechanical integrity of the assembly.

Function and Performance

In an anglewinder configuration, the motor is positioned at an angle to the rear axle, allowing for optimised weight distribution and the use of more direct transmissions. For this system to function correctly, the mount and its extensions must fit precisely: any play or misalignment results in performance loss and premature wear of the drivetrain components.

This extension is manufactured to the same tolerance standards as the rest of the RT3 range from Scaleauto, ensuring a clean and hassle-free integration with the original mount.

Compatibility

• Designed for Scaleauto cars with RT3 motor mount in anglewinder configuration.
• Complements and extends the RT3 motor mount from the Scaleauto range.
• Check compatibility with your specific chassis before installation if you have doubts about your mount version.

Installation and Preparation

The installation of this extension does not require special tools, but it is advisable to check the condition of the main motor mount before installing it. Ensure there are no adhesive residues or deformations at the joining points. Once installed, check that the motor spins freely and that the working angle remains constant before permanently securing the assembly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is this extension for?

It extends or completes the Scaleauto RT3 motor mount in anglewinder configurations, ensuring that the motor is correctly positioned at its working angle relative to the rear axle.

What is the difference between anglewinder, sidewinder, and inline?

In an anglewinder, the motor is positioned at an angle to the rear axle. In a sidewinder, the motor is parallel (transverse) to the rear axle. In an inline, the motor is in a longitudinal line with the car, perpendicular to the rear axle, which lowers the centre of gravity. Each configuration has its advantages depending on the type of chassis and track.

Is it compatible with chassis from other brands?

It is specifically designed for Scaleauto cars with RT3 mount. Compatibility with chassis from other brands is not verified, so we cannot guarantee it.

Do I need to replace the complete mount or just this extension?

It depends on the condition of the RT3 motor mount you already have. If the mount is in good condition and you only need the extension piece, this reference is sufficient. If the main mount is also damaged, it will need to be replaced separately.

The Scaleauto SC-6538 is a motor mount extension for the RT3 anglewinder setup, a key spare part for Scaleauto slot cars. Designed to ensure precise motor positioning in anglewinder configurations, this component is essential for competitive slot car racing and track-day preparation. Compatible with Scaleauto RT3 motor mount systems.
