If you are finally into the "Digital" version of the hobby, then you will need these part to create the pitlane, but also to increase/decrease the number of lanes or use double lane-changers if you are using the "Electronic Mode". **If you want it all, the [All Curves Pack](https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-mydigitalslot-all-curves-pack-3d-printed-diy-track-parts-for-your-1-32-slot-car-racing-game-184412), [All Straights Pack](https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-mydigitalslot-all-straights-pack-3d-printed-diy-track-parts-for-your-1-32-slot-car-racing-game-184610) and [Lane-Changers](https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-mydigitalslot-left-right-and-double-lane-changers-3d-printed-diy-track-parts-for-your-1-32-digital-slot-car-racing-game-185461) is what you need.** If you plan to buy these 3 publications, ask me for a discount and I will create it for you if you can't wait until I publish a "mega-combo pack" with these 3 publications. These track parts can be compatilble with other existing commercial track parts using the right adaptors. ##MyDigitalSlot System, more than a track This is part of a more complete work, a whole car racing Digital Slot System, including the track parts, controllers, car chassis, electronics and bodies. The same way various digital accessories like "Info Screens" with cars and race information, synchronized start lights system, RGB lighting, and probably an app and HDMI output will be available. The main idea is to be able to print, build and use a full RC Car Slot Digital Racing System which is independent from market typical trades. Anyway you can use the different parts of the system in many ways. ##The main features of MyDigitalSlot System are: - Lap count - Fuel and Health systems - Racing system without base controller, just with cars and their controllers - Race configuration and invitation system just with your controller! - Stop and Go system for race starts and accidents - Speed Cap system for low health or fuel - Wireless and rechargable controllers - Enter / Exit Pit Lane detection, you need to stop there to restore full fuel / health levels - Cars can run in both directions in the same lane - Cars with full configurable lights, including dimming rear/brake lights, Left and Right Blinkers and Front Lights - Cars can control various servos, a XYZ gyro, IR lights and sensors and the motor driver More features are coming, but I will need a great bunch of feedback, I hope yours too, to take the whole system to a more profesional, next level. ##System Versatility You can use the track parts to build and drive your analog or digital cars, you can mix the parts with older or newer Scalextric parts using transition/adaptor parts. You can also use the MyDigitalSlot cars and controllers in those commercial tracks, but the "digital" system accessories of those commercial tracks probably won't work. The electronics involved in the controllers, cars and digital track parts are quite simple and easy to source, like cheap arduinos, resistors, diodes, leds, RGB digital leds, pots and a few more things. There is a very good thing about the electronic lane-changers... You can use both mechanical and IR systems simultaneously, I mean, one car can change lane mechanically and the next one could use the IR led to change lane. You CAN'T use "mechanical lane-changer cars" with old Scalextric track parts (black) but you can use "IR lane-changer cars" and complete your track with all those old track parts you had around there from many years ago. Printing a big track could take many many plastic (various KG) and hundreds of hours of 3D printing, so this electronic lane-changer system in combination with your old black track parts could be the most economically interesting solution from my point of view. If you give it a try to MyDigitalSlot you will be welcomed to my Discord Server to ask, show or suggest any change to this DIY 3D Printable Digital Slot System, but you can also use the comments of this publication if it makes sense. To complete the connection system you will also need (INCLUDED IN MDS PRODUCTS): - MDS_TRACK_CLIP_Standard (To connect track parts) - MDS_TRACK_CLIP_Pianos (To interconnect pianos) - MDS_TRACK_CLIP_Lanes (To fix straight lanes in parallel) - MDS_TRACK_CLIP_IR-holder (To hold IR lights and sensors) MyDigitalSlot track parts are compatible with the next adaptors (NOT INCLUDED): - MDS_TRACK_ADAP_SCA_CLASSIC_SL_STR45_FEMALE - MDS_TRACK_ADAP_SCA_CLASSIC_SL_STR45_MALE - MDS_TRACK_ADAP_SCA_CLASSIC_DL_STR45 - MDS_TRACK_ADAP_SCA_SPORT_SL_STR45_ROUND - MDS_TRACK_ADAP_SCA_SPORT_SL_STR45_SQUARE - MDS_TRACK_ADAP_SCA_SPORT_DL_STR45 - MDS_TRACK_ADAP_SCX_GREY_SL_STR45 - MDS_TRACK_ADAP_SCX_GREY_DL_STR45
