Features and function
- Clip-in System: the clip anchoring allows for guide replacement in seconds, without the need for tools or complicated disassembly.
- 7 mm depth: specific dimension for the Scaleauto Home Rally track, ensuring proper fit and stability of the car.
- Use on Home Rally track: designed and validated for this type of circuit, with the appropriate geometry for its slots and surface finish.
Compatibilities
This guide is aimed at the Scaleauto home Rally track. Before installing it on another rail system, check the groove depth of your track, as not all home circuits share the same measurements. Scaleauto typically works on Sport rail, compatible with Scaleauto and Slot.it systems, although the specific specifications of the Home Rally track may differ from the standard Sport rail.
Assembly and preparation
The Clip-in system simplifies setup: just fit the guide into the chassis housing until you hear the click of fixation. If you are preparing the car for a club session or simply want to have everything ready before going on track, it is advisable to check the condition of the braids and their contact with the guide to ensure a clean electrical transmission.
Ideal for…
Enthusiasts who have a Scaleauto home Rally track and need to replace the guide due to wear or breakage, or who want to have spare units on hand to avoid interrupting sessions. Also useful for those preparing multiple cars and looking to standardise the guide system across their fleet.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the Clip-in guide and a screw-mounted guide?
The Clip-in guide is fixed by pressure using a clip system, allowing it to be changed without tools in a matter of seconds. The screw-mounted guide requires a screwdriver and a bit more time, although it may offer a slightly stiffer hold on certain chassis.
Is the 7 mm depth compatible with the standard Scaleauto Sport track?
The depth of the guide must match the depth of the rail of the track you are using. The Scaleauto Home Rally track has its own dimensions; consult the specifications of your circuit before mixing guides from different ranges.
How often should the guide be changed?
It depends on usage and the type of track. In frequent sessions or on circuits with very sharp curves, the guide may show wear on the contact side. Check it periodically and replace it when you notice excessive play or loss of direction.
Do I need special tools to install it?
No. The Clip-in system is designed for direct manual assembly. Simply align the guide with the chassis housing and press until it is secured.
