QUOTE it would be much better to have the lane changers ON the curve
For freedom of track design, it would be nice to see both curved and high-speed straight LCs.
I'm not too familiar with the SCX system, but if the guide executes the lane changes, it might not be practical to use LCs on curves. The side loading on the guide will be heavy in a corner... can the actuator overcome this side pressure to steer the car toward the inside on curved LCs?
