Scx pod

[Racie35]

Is there anyone making pods for scx cars...non pro pod and with 130 motor?

I am slightly confused.
Most regular SCX cars don't have a pod at all. In order to install one, you have to cut up the chassis (not a huge loss). But if you do that, there are plenty of pods available.
If you want to convert the SCX motor to an FC-130 without changing the chassis, Slot.it makes the parts but there are options for printing them as well (Thingiverse again).

Maybe my SCX cars are just too old and the new ones have a pod?

They have one that rolls left to right....older cars didn't.....I'll look for a picture to show

Here's a few pics

The Slot.it SISP08 adapter allows use of a FC-130 motor in the regular RX pod but won't work in a pod for RK motors

I was hoping someone made one that fits the 130 moving it back enough...but yes, I've got the adapters for the other..

Racie35,
I should have a pod or two. How many do you need?

Also might be of interest to you. If you can get your hands on a RK42 pod a FK180 motor will slip in with a wee bit of modification to the front motor mounts to allow for the motor contacts. I put a Ninco NC2 virtually straight in a Cuda with the RK pod and just had to add a couple of wires.

A Colgate motor will fit those pod too, snicker snicker
