Slot.it carbon fibre anglewinder motor mount, with an offset of 0.0 mm and EVO6 design. Designed for standard and Flat motors, it allows for precise installation without lateral deviation, ideal for demanding enthusiasts in the preparation of their competition cars.
The Slot.it EVO6 Anglewinder Mount: Precision to the Millimetre for Your Track Setup
The Anglewinder Motor Mount Offset 0.0 mm EVO6 (ref. SICH61C1) from Slot.it is a preparation component designed for those who want to take their drivetrain assembly to the next level. Made from carbon fibre, it combines structural lightness with outstanding rigidity, two essential qualities when discussing competition mounts in 1/32 scale.
Function and Performance
This mount positions the motor in anglewinder configuration, meaning the motor shaft is angled relative to the car's rear axle. The offset 0.0 mm value indicates that there is no lateral displacement between the centre of the motor and the drive shaft, resulting in a clean drivetrain geometry without unnecessary stress on the gears.
The EVO6 generation reflects the continuous evolution of Slot.it's modular mount system, one of the benchmarks in the industry for precision spare parts for 1/32 scale.
Compatibility
- Compatible with standard motors from the Slot.it range.
- Compatible with Flat motors from the Slot.it range.
- Designed for chassis and mount systems of the Slot.it EVO6 platform.
If you are planning an anglewinder installation and need to align offset, motor, and gear ratio, this mount is the right starting point for a 0.0 mm configuration without lateral corrections.
Assembly and Preparation
The carbon fibre ensures that the mount does not yield or deform under the load and vibrations of the running motor, which is especially relevant during long running or competition sessions. When assembling this mount, it is advisable to check the alignment of the pinion with the crown gear and ensure that the motor is securely fixed before adjusting the rest of the drivetrain assembly.
Slot.it designs its mounts with very tight tolerances, so the fit with chassis from its own range is direct and without play. For installations on third-party chassis, it is recommended to check compatibility before proceeding.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does "offset 0.0 mm" mean in an anglewinder motor mount?
The offset indicates the lateral displacement of the motor shaft relative to the centre of the rear axle. With an offset of 0.0 mm, both shafts are perfectly aligned laterally, providing a more direct drivetrain and reducing stress on the gears.
What is the difference between an anglewinder mount and a sidewinder mount?
In anglewinder configuration, the motor is positioned at an angle relative to the rear axle. In sidewinder configuration, the motor is parallel to the rear axle (transverse). Each configuration has different implications regarding weight distribution, centre of gravity height, and available space in the chassis.
Is this mount compatible with motors from other brands?
Slot.it specifies compatibility with standard and Flat motors from its own range. Compatibility with motors from other brands will depend on whether they share the same housing dimensions. It is advisable to verify this before assembly.
What level of driver or competition is this mount intended for?
It is a component aimed at enthusiasts with knowledge of 1/32 slot car preparation, suitable for both club use and competition. It does not require special modifications, but careful assembly is necessary to take full advantage of its precision.
Does the mount include other fastening or transmission elements?
The available information indicates that it is solely the motor mount. Transmission elements (pinion, crown gear, shaft) must be purchased separately according to the desired gear ratio.
The Slot.it SICH61C1 Anglewinder Motor Mount Offset 0.0mm EVO6 is a precision carbon fibre component designed for 1/32 scale slot car competition. Compatible with standard and Flat motors, this EVO6 generation mount delivers a clean, zero-offset drivetrain geometry for anglewinder setups. A must-have spare part for serious slot car builders looking to fine-tune their transmission layout on Slot.it chassis.
