adjustment not equal to correct geormetry
flexibility to adjustment cannot beat precision engineering
but good concept and innovation. I really respect your creativity and craftsmanship on this pr ...
There was a time you mentioned "off" and then you said "uneven" & "unbalance' and now you speak of "correct geometry". It is difficult to find your focus. In fact, the adjustment of the location of roll centre is to work with different tracks and the original roll centre was wrong due to the simple design of the bearing knuckle. You should have learnt that with your claimed experience in real car mechanics.
You said, "left and right camber/caster/toe angle is uneven". How do you know that if you haven't done any measurement first? (雖然我知道唔係為100%一樣,但係我用尺度過都好準,原裝啲膠都'口脾'得唔準啦.)
How long the Lipo battery last? I mean the play time...
They are about 700mah, 7.4V so with an appropriately tuned motor of 50 turns, I run it for about 13 minutes with the speed of other cars using a 3?T motor. I won't allow the battery to run flat.
Cars engineer use a lot of time to design and calculate the geometry on how long/short and where to put the control arm(like the bigger car:1/10RC) and where the pivot point is. It is to evenly share the load(weight) and weight transfer of the car. If a new car come out not going stright with no hand steering or tire with abnormal wear after 2-3 month, we call it defect and we have to fix it with precision measurement tools that measure down to 0.01 degree(for all camber/caster/toe).
This is a mini-z and the tyres wear every pack of battery. The clearance between the bulkheads and the knuckles of the wheels is more than 1 degree even when the mini-z is brand new, not to mention 0.01. If you really knew a lot about the AWD, you wouldn't have asked in the forum about how to set up a MR015 and an Enzo MR02 somewhere in this forum.
This car is 2 years old and I have been running it at both CT and MMS. I started with the MR01 when it first came to the market and have not stopped playing with the 1/28 till now.
I do whatever I can to make it run faster on tracks, not to make sure that it runs 100% straight nor to seek for the endurance, safety and driving leisure that real cars have to offer.
I am not going to waist time with you, go out and find a book that talk about real car suspension setup like in option or cars and driver and you will know what I am talking about. My brother always ...
This is a mini-Z forum. I guess there should be many real car forums to post your reply.
You wrote," but the idea on suspension setting/weight distribution/weight transfer/tire choice is the same doesn't matter 1:1 or 1:100."
but I guess scale matters a lot because the proportional speed at corners of the mini-Z is even faster than that of an F1.
Thanks for reminding me to read. I have a habit of reading and I think I'll never stop it until I die. If you really had read enough, you wouldn't have typed "waist" for "waste", "talk about" for "talks about" ...and so on. Perhaps you are the one to read more.
It is not necessary to have left tire and right tire to worn evenly, but will the to even the inner tire wear and outter tire wear. In racing, they will put free weight closer to front, rear, lef ...
What a mess.
This is not "typo". I'd rather use the term "incomprehensible" (both for the Chinese and native English speakers). I'm happy to chat here but you still have to use a language that people understand.
Which "it" do you mean? Did you mix up the two people talking here?
Sometimes we don't add 's' to the verb because it is an 'infinitive'. Such as we say,
"I wish to make it run faster." instead of "I wish to make it runs faster."
because after words like "make" "let" or "see", we should use a "bare infinitive" instead of another verb. You should have learnt all these in form 2 if you studied in Hong Kong.
