It should never be able to touch the track.
The LED should be flush, or very slightly protruding through the bottom of the chassis. I used some thick double stick foam tape to hold the chip to the chassis and raise it up enough that the LED does not stick out too far. As such, the best way to install the chip is by clipping the plastic legs that hold the chip to the DPR hatch, and install it as shown in the photos (link below). The front wheels can be easily moved as well, using the stub axles clipped to the original chassis.ĭue to the way the front wheels have struts, there is not enough room for the full DPR chip hatch. The motor pod from the SCXD chassis can just be popped out of the old one, and popped into the new one. The only thing needed is a standard analog type guide, the wiring loom for DPR chips, and the DPR chip itself. Note that the purpose of this chassis is to use AS MANY ORIGINAL PARTS AS POSSIBLE, so that the parts from the SCX chassis can simply be moved over to this new one. I offered to help, and this is the result. He didn't want to give up using those bodies, but converting an SCX Digital chassis to plain analog or Scalextric Digital isn't as straightforward as for other brands. A good friend switched from SCX Digital slot cars to Scalextric Digital, but had a large collection of SCX NASCAR cars, including several that he customized the livery on.
