AW RT4 Offset Motor Mount -1.00mm

The Scaleauto RT4 SC-6529B Anglewinder Pod: Precision and Rigidity for Competitive GT/LMP Cars

Scaleauto expands its range of motor pods with this RT4 in Anglewinder configuration and -1.00mm offset, designed for enthusiasts looking to adjust mass distribution and transmission geometry in their GT and LMP setups. A change of pod can make a difference in lap consistency and traction response, and Scaleauto knows this well.

Main Features

• Anglewinder Configuration: the motor is positioned at an angle to the rear axle, combining the compactness advantages of the Sidewinder with a lower centre of gravity.
• -1.00mm Offset: negative offset that allows lateral adjustment of the motor position and optimises the relationship with the crown gear according to each chassis's needs.
• New Green POD Material: newly formulated injected plastic in green, harder and more resistant than previous generations, with greater tolerance to vibrations and motor heat.
• 12° Motor Angle: geometry that enhances transmission efficiency and facilitates assembly within the GT/LMP chassis.
• Self-Centering Spherical Brass Bearings: absorb minor misalignments of the axle, reducing wear and maintaining smooth rotation at all times.
• Complete Contents: includes screws, spherical brass bearings, and various chassis mounting supports.

Compatibility

The SC-6529B is suitable for all long-can motors and Slot.it Flat motors, making it a very versatile option within the preparation workshop. It is specifically designed for GT and LMP type bodies and chassis.

Assembly and Preparation

Thanks to the kit including screws and various mounting supports, assembly is straightforward without the need to search for additional parts. The self-centering spherical bearings facilitate rear axle alignment even if there is a slight inaccuracy in the chassis, which can mean several hundredths per lap in club racing. We recommend checking the lateral play of the crown gear before permanently fixing the pod, especially when using negative offset with smaller diameter crowns.

Ideal for…

This pod is aimed at club racers and builders working with Sport-type chassis (Scaleauto, Slot.it track) who are looking to experiment with motor positioning to fine-tune cornering behaviour. It is also an excellent base for those building their own GT/LMP setups from scratch.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the -1.00mm offset and other available offset values?

The offset indicates the lateral displacement of the motor relative to the central axis of the chassis. A negative value (-1.00mm) moves the motor-pinion assembly to one side, influencing alignment with the crown gear and lateral mass distribution. Scaleauto offers various offset values so that each builder can find the optimal geometry for their setup.

What is the Anglewinder configuration?

In the Anglewinder configuration, the motor is placed at an angle to the rear axle. This differentiates it from the Sidewinder (motor parallel to the axle, transverse) and the Inline (motor perpendicular to the axle, longitudinal). The Anglewinder seeks a balance between compactness and a low centre of gravity.

Is it compatible with short-can motors?

According to Scaleauto's information, this pod is valid for long-can motors and for Slot.it Flat motors. It is not intended for standard short-can motors.

Do the spherical bearings come pre-installed?

The kit includes the spherical brass bearings along with the screws and mounting supports. The final assembly is carried out by the builder according to their specific chassis.

What advantage does the New Green POD material offer over conventional plastic?

Scaleauto's new formulation is harder and more resistant than that used in previous versions, improving the durability of the pod against vibrations and heat generated by the motor during long track sessions.

The Scaleauto SC-6529B RT4 Anglewinder motor pod with -1.00mm offset is a precision slot car part designed for GT and LMP chassis. Featuring spherical self-centering brass bearings, New Green POD injected plastic, a 12° motor angle, and full hardware kit, it is compatible with long-can motors and Slot.it Flat motors. A must-have upgrade for club racers and builders looking to fine-tune motor alignment and weight distribution on Sport-track setups.
