Thank you for watching and commenting. Glad it helped.

Hi Adrian. Thanks for watching and asking questions. Check out this video as it will help to answer some of your questions… Build a race winning JK C43 Aleos slot car chassis - Part 6 (Fitting JK Hawk 7 FK motor and gear) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b8-DapSIsLeUqIU.html

I think you are asking about the ATTAN gears. Here is a link… eshop.slot-racing.cz/attan-slot-racing/eshop/5-1-Gears-pinions/0/5/84-Gear-42t-44t-72p-15-axle-3-32

Thanks for asking. I will certainly add that to my list of tech tips 👍🏻

Not a silly question and thanks for asking. People have tried a direct drive slot car but there are a couple of major issues associated with it. One problem is that if the motor armature is rotating in the same direction as the wheels, then the torque of the motor will cause the can of the motor to try and rotate in the opposite direction. This causes the front of the chassis to lift out of the slot. The other problem is that a conventional sidewinder or anglewinder slot car uses the gyroscopic effect of the motor to help the handling of the car. If the motor was directly driving the wheels the gyroscopic effect would be far less as the motor would need to be rotating at a slower speed.

Not silly, when I was a kid, slotcars we ran had direct friction drive from the motor amrature to one of the rear wheels. Rubber O ring on motor, set against the 'new' siliscone style rear tires, circa 1968-69 if I remember right......JC

@@jamescouden8730 , I know PARMA used to sell “whisper jet” cars that were driven by an o-ring type belt. 👍🏻

Well i picked up a Scalextric black corvette with a 18k Mubachi and thought why nit give a rewind a try used 0.25mm enamel copper wire 50 winds per pole @ 12volts it pulled 800 Mamps and rpm was off the charts what a great experiment very enjoyable process... will look to rewind but with more winds hopefully bring down amp demand and heat a little... have no idea how i will control this motor ontrack may need to build custom brass chassis with lexan body i think.. cheers tj 😊👍

@@tjkirkpatrick9451 , sounds like a beast. 800 Mega amps is frightening ⚡️💥. If it was drawing 800 milli amps then that is still quite a handful for a little Mabuchi motor in a Scalextric car. You might need to upgrade your track power supply and solder the track joints together. Good effort and keep trying new winds till you find something you are happy with 👏👍🏻
