This is the motor we used for the 2021 SCX Cudas. It's an FR42 motor that should be about the same speed as a standard Scalextric/Carrera motor.

I just was looking at one of my "old" Cuda's and this new motor, FR-42, the case may be more compact than the old RX-42. If I read the spec's correctly, the torque is about 100 g-cm.

Just seen the chassis picture, I see the rear bushings are a new type. I am guessing that the motor pod can be changed with an older car. Is that a Digital chip in the car??Last edited by jaws; February 14, 2021, 11:34 AM.

It's an analog car, it's just the "jumper chip" to get power from the guide to the motor. I've not tried to switch the pods, the mold is identical to the one used years ago, no changes.Slot Car Nerd/Photographer/ Just a self-styled marketing guy on my back porch.

I also thought that it may be something for the "lights". I see SCC is saying the car comes with lights. The chassis sure looks to be the same, that is why I feel the pods could be changed. I have one on order. I needed a Vitamin C orange to go with my "Lime" car!!! Thanks Dave for bringing these cars back.

So this is the new company which was formed under the Arnau family itself. The family owns the SCX/Scalextric (Spain) brand. They had licensed the brand to other companies to use for years. When i worked for SCX is was licensed to Tecnitoys to use. This time the Armau family have formed a company to produce cars/track/etc themselves. They have used this name Scale Competition Xtreme to set themselves apart from the previous companies i guess. That moniker wasn't used until this latest version of the company was formed. It doesn't apply to the company before now.

So as I mention in the video all 5 are available now.
The white cars and black cars were made in VERY small quantity as an add on car for dealers if they'd order case quantities. So if they order 23 cars (any one color or combination of colors) they get either a white car or black car as the 24th car.

Because most won't be sure which color "extra" car they are getting or maybe they will want to keep them since most will only get 1 or 2 cars.

They put one of these motors in the new Lancia Fulvia - way to punchy for that carThey should go alright in the Cuda though. I plan to use the one I took out of the Lancia in a GT or Can Am car.
Not sure if they put the same motor in the new Audi rally car I will have to check.
