Lotus 79 Digital Conversion


Recommended Posts

Has anyone done a digital conversion on the new Lotus 79 supplied in the 78 Swedish Grand Prix limited edition set?  If so, how did you mount the C7005 chip.  I'm struggling to find a position that will work given the shape of the body and undertray.  The sales blurb implies it can be converted to digital with this chip but I'm not so sure.  I've asked the technical support via email but haven't got response as yet.

HI There,

Formula cars are always a challenge. It is good to remember you can lengthen the leads to the LED and the pickups more or less ad infinitum.

So maybe a side pod will have space (you could counter balance it).

Often people will decapitate or hollow out the driver and put the chip where the seat would be.

This thread here, though long, covers a lot of cars: https://www.slotforum.com/threads/ssd-chipping-database.22159/
