Building and Soldering a Slot Car Chassis Kit - Part 1

This is the first part of building a new #slotcar #chassis
The chassis has been EDM #wirecut so it needs a little preparation and all the parts cutting off the sprue before we can start assembling.
In part 2 I start #soldering the parts together.

Great video. I’ve never built a slot car before and I’m currently doing research on how to build one.

[@7732147]

Really happy that we're going to see you build a brushless car in this series James. I've tested brushless and they suit my driving style much better. Can't wait to see how this is going to progress.
Keep up the the good work buddy.

[@CleaveTech]

You were there when I raced it 😉.

[@SlotCar2021]

Great video ❤ I use a cut off disc then go in with a file. Not built one of these specific chassis so very helpful for me to check if I get one of these.
I have found that after building a metal chassis you do have to check them as they bend easy.

Brushless, the future of slot cars and more participants.

Chassis for brushless motors

[@dragonrro1581]

Hi Clive, I would like to see a review of the console you perform on

[@CleaveTech]

Please explain what you mean when you say “console”?

[@Carfunmostly]

Brushless motor box.

[@triffidgrower]

Brushless something.

[@ronthornton2583]

What make chassis, what cost and availability please 🙂🙂

[@CleaveTech]

It is a Piero Castricone chassis from Italy. I am not sure how many he had made in the last batch. I cannot comment on cost as shipping costs would be different for you.

[@Sullie8]

Great Video! but it all looks very complicated, and a -bit over engineered..

[@denispemberton1807]

Where do you get the Chassis from?

[@CleaveTech]

The chassis is from Piero Castricone in Italy.
