AW Offset Motor Mount 1.0mm EVO6 Hard Bearings

The Slot.it EVO6 anglewinder motor pod takes your 1/32 slot car preparation to the next level

The EVO6 Hard motor mount with bearings and 1.0 mm offset (reference SICH119b2) is the key component that makes a difference when slot car preparation transitions from hobby to serious competition. Slot.it, an absolute reference in the slot racing scene, designs its motor pods with the same philosophy it applies to its chassis and motors: minimal tolerances, well-chosen materials, and a clear focus on track performance.

Function and performance

This motor pod is designed for anglewinder configurations, where the motor is positioned at an angle relative to the rear axle. This type of mounting combines advantages of both sidewinder and inline setups, allowing for a good weight distribution without sacrificing compactness.

• 1.0 mm offset: slightly shifts the motor-pinion assembly relative to the axle, allowing for adjustment of the transmission geometry and optimisation of the engagement with the crown gear. It is a small difference in millimetres, but very relevant when fine-tuning the behaviour of the drive train.
• Hard version: the material of the motor pod exhibits greater rigidity than standard or soft versions, reducing flex under load and improving consistency in power transmission. Recommended for technical tracks and competition where precision is paramount.
• With bearings: the incorporation of bearings in the mount reduces friction, enhances motor response, and contributes to greater durability of the assembly during long sessions or intensive use.

Compatibility and assembly

This motor pod is part of Slot.it's modular system, designed to integrate with the brand's chassis and motors. Before assembly, it is advisable to verify that the 1.0 mm offset is suitable for the crown gear and pinion you intend to use, as well as for the receiving chassis. Slot.it offers different offset values in its EVO range so that each preparer can choose the most precise combination according to their configuration.

Mounting on Sport track — the system compatible with Slot.it and Scaleauto — does not directly influence the motor pod, but it is important to consider the circuit characteristics when deciding between hard or soft versions.

Common mistakes

• Confusing the necessary offset: always measure the distance between the axle and the motor before choosing between 0.5 mm, 1.0 mm, or other available values in the range.
• Mounting the motor pod without checking the lateral play of the pinion with the crown gear: an overly tight or too loose engagement negates any advantage of the motor pod.
• Not tightening the fixing screws properly: with a hard motor pod, vibrations are transmitted more faithfully, so any play in the assembly is more noticeable.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between the Hard version and the standard version of the EVO6 motor pod?

The Hard version uses a material with greater rigidity, minimising flex in the mount during acceleration and in high-load corners. This favours a more consistent power transmission. The standard or soft version may better absorb certain irregularities, but at the cost of some precision.

What exactly is the purpose of the 1.0 mm offset?

The offset shifts the position of the motor relative to the rear axle. With a 1.0 mm offset, the pinion-crown gear engagement geometry is modified, which can improve transmission performance depending on the size of the teeth and the type of crown gear used. It is a fine adjustment aimed at optimisation in competition.

Are the included bearings replaceable?

In the Slot.it system, the bearings are standard components and typically replaceable. If the bearings wear out, you can replace them with compatible bearings from the Slot.it range without needing to change the entire motor pod.

Is this motor pod compatible with any Slot.it anglewinder motor?

The EVO6 motor pod is designed within Slot.it's modular system. Specific compatibility depends on the motor and chassis you use. Consult Slot.it's technical documentation or contact us if you have questions about your configuration.

Should I also change the pinion when installing this motor pod with a 1.0 mm offset?

Not necessarily, but you should verify that the resulting engagement is correct. Changing the offset alters the centre-to-centre distance between the pinion and the crown gear, so it may be necessary to adjust the number of teeth or the type of pinion to maintain optimal engagement.
