Due to many crashes, we had to replace a bent axle. While changing the axles, we decided to try to FWD version of the car and noticed it was easier to control. New experiment idea, FWD vs. AWD vs. RWD! To be continued…
LVGL- Infinity Campus
Students deciding where to attach masses to the car
Danny Scheila and Sam compiling the data gathered from the experiment
Alex checking the track after adding mass to the car
Students talking to Manzo about the experiment
Students working on an experiment to determine the optimal mass of a car to maximize handling and acceleration
Adrian and Rogelio setting up one of the cars with the cardboard
RC car with cardboard attached
Johnny deciding which size boards to use first
Adrian setting up the car with the board
Infinity Engineering students setting up experiment to compare frontal surface area vs. maximum speed of the RC cars. We setup sheets of cardboard of different sizes (surface areas) and attached them perpendicular to the direction of motion. The boards were attached using straws and the oem body posts, no modifications to the car were necessary.
