Mike .. That looks incredible!! I can see the change from your wood frame to this one.. I bet the wood was really dampening the subtle vibrations and stuff. Have you had any issues with the aluminum profile nuts and bolts coming loose? I have a full frame steel rig.. (mostly welded) sometimes stuff just comes loose even on my rig.. DMAX
Thanks, yes very quickly realised that while the wood was a great and quick way to test the concept, there's just too much flex in timber. Heavy too. Ive been running my Ali sim for a year and a half now and have not had any bolt come loose.
fantastic work! Are you documenting your builds anywhere? I noticed that the motors are located on the back in this design, whereas in the earlier wooden frame, they were approx. mid-frame, any info regarding the change?
@@WilsonBradleyTheOfficial there is a build thread on xsim. But this is now a commercial product so no further self build information will be made available
You either get thrown about a bit due to the surge and sway forces spiking, or you turn on crash detection in Simtools and nothing happens as it filters it out
With the money spent on that you could have bought a superkart and experienced very high performance motorsport in real life. 0-60mph 150mph and braking for hairpins at 100 m. Not having a go. Looks cool.
