Thank you

Does anyone know how the interface between the wireless hand controller and Arc Pro works, protocols etc. IS is Wireless, bluetooth etc? I want to be able to send commands to the Arc Pro that simulate a hand throttle position. Is there a way I can interface an ESP32 microcontroller wirelessly to the Arc Pro to achieve this.

For some reason I cannot paste the link in, it will not be accepted, sorry.

this link should work.

Hi, Very good information. Thank you for taking the time. Regards Rob

Hi, Does anyone know the part number for the ferrite chokes used in the digital cars, or where to buy them or the technical details or graphical details of frequency versus resistance / capaticance / inductive response. I need to buy a few and want to make sure I obtain the correct ones. Regards Rob

Thanks for yuor response. I am aware of Magic Arc and I am using it. I do believe Scalextric should bring out a windows version themselves. I am just wondering if it is on the drawing board at all. I suppose I am finding it difficult to find information about Scalextric future thinking in terms of improvements, new products, advancements, timelines etc.

Will Scalextric ever birng out a windows version of this app?

In the end I modified the guide blade and it's housing to increase the angle of rotation of the guide blade. It works well. I have a pdf document with photos showing what I have done if anyone is interested. I cannot attach a document to this thread so send me your email address if your interested and I can send you a copy of the pdf file

I notice with the two digital F1 cars I have (C3956 2017 McClaren Formula 1 Car Alonso and the C3955 Williams Formula 1 Car F-Massa). The guide blade rotation is limited to a smaller angle of rotation compared to other non F1 car. The effect is the car struggles to get around the tight radius of an R1 curve. Has anyone else experienced this issue and I'm curious what you have done to resolve this issue. For me I am thinking of mechanically grinding the mechanical stops on the guide blade to increase it's angle of rotation. Just interested to see what others have done before I do this.
