FAQs

What is the main benefit of the Rev. B compared to older versions?

The Rev. B designation typically indicates design improvements, which may include enhanced durability, better electrical contact, or a refined clip mechanism over previous revisions.

Will this pickup work on a Carrera or Scalextric car?

This pickup is specifically designed for Slot.it cars. While some degree of universal fit might exist, it is not guaranteed, and performance may be suboptimal. It's best to use it with compatible Slot.it chassis.

How often should I clean the pickup braids?

It's recommended to clean the pickup braids and track contacts before each racing session or whenever you notice a decrease in performance to ensure optimal electrical conductivity.

Can I replace just the pickup braids?

Generally, the pickup braids are not designed to be replaced individually. If they are significantly worn or damaged, the entire pickup unit (SICH66) will likely need to be replaced.

What does 'Clip Racing Pickup' mean?

It refers to the design of the pickup, which uses clips to attach securely to the slot car chassis, distinguishing it from pickups that might be screwed or glued in place.

Is this pickup suitable for digital slot car systems?

This pickup is primarily designed for analog slot car racing. For digital systems, ensure compatibility with your specific digital track and car system, as digital systems often have unique electrical requirements.

Troubleshooting

Car loses power intermittently

Check that the pickup is securely clipped into the chassis. Ensure the pickup braids are making firm contact with the track. Clean both the pickup braids and the track power rails.

Pickup braids appear worn or damaged

The pickup braids may need replacement. Inspect for excessive wear and consider replacing the entire pickup unit if the braids are significantly degraded.

Pickup does not fit the chassis

Verify that you have the correct model for your slot car chassis. Confirm compatibility with your specific Slot.it model. If it's a non-Slot.it chassis, it may not be compatible.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure your slot car is powered off and disconnected from the track.
  2. Carefully remove the old pickup from the car's underside.
  3. Align the SLOT.IT Clip Racing Pickup Rev. B (SICH66) with the designated mounting points on the chassis.
  4. Press the pickup firmly until the clips engage securely.

Compatibility:

This pickup is primarily designed for use with Slot.it brand slot cars. While it may fit other chassis, verification of the mounting points and clearance is recommended. Check the specific Slot.it model or chassis reference to confirm compatibility with the SICH66 part number.

Care:

Periodically inspect the pickup for wear or damage. Clean the pickup braids and track contacts gently with a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to remove dust and debris. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the conductive material.
