It's a great place I used to delver there when I was an NHS Truck Driver. I'm gonna order the esc's tomorrow if they fit, just gotta double check the measurements.

    listen, i have some sort of experience with aerodynamics and as much as you want minimal drag you need at least some downforce for it to work well, the body alone isnt enough. increased downforce means that the car wont take off, can accelerate faster, can keep control and can shovel air better.
    Having a rear wing will keep the back from spinning out and putting some proper air spitters, cannards and air dams can keep the nose down and allow for better transfer of power from the wheels to the ground, you cant go fast if your wheels are just spinning in the air. i also notice that your body has a decorative top air nozzle that is covered over, cutting it out and letting air flow into the car will help cooling and its small enough to not be a huge problem but the car will be fast enough to get enough air in there.
    for example running a formula one car without any downforce compared to with downforce makes it slower as the wheels arent able to stick to the ground and the tires just spin.
    i recommend at least having 2/3 bodies with different levels of downforce addons and cooling slots to test for results yourself but i find that there is alot of benefit to sacrificing a little acceleration for a higher top speed
    (edit: also increase the rear suspension a crap ton! letting the nose lift for a second could be catastrophic at those speeds, tight rear suspension coupled with cannards will help the nose stay down)

    I really like the dual motor setup and how you’ve installed them. With each motor powering front or rear separate from one another. The only problem I see I these esc’s. I’ve only seen them run successfully when paired to their exact brand motors. I hope you stick with this. It is a really fun part of our hobby. I’m building a 4tec2.0 8S speed car. With tppower and Mmx8s esc. I will be running it on 4S parallel for a long time. When it comes to extreme world record breaking speeds. It takes a lot of patience and trial and error. Find me on FB and we can chat it up brother. Keep at it and be safe bro’ham! God speed. 🏎💨

  • @christiansprojects-cgmanuf1426

    Kevin, I really like your enthusiasm but let me say that your gearing is waaaaay off! I’m not a nay-sayer, I love what you are doing but look: 3300KV motors, 12S Lipo. That‘s roughly 150‘000rpms (no load) at the motor. If your differentials have a 3:1 ratio, you have 50’000 rpms at the wheels. You have 100mm wheels, so they are 31 centimeters circumference. That makes 261 meters a second or 586mph at the wheels.
    So, either you need new motors with around half the kv or some kind of gearboxes to get a wheelspeed of something around 250mph or this wil never work.
    Edit: That probably is also the reason why one of your ESCs and LiPos broke down. The current must be crazy high with this setup. This is like trying to climb a hill in highest gear - you are stalling the motors so to say. I love your idea of the direct driven differentials but if it was my car, I'd try it with 1200-1600KV motors and 8S, maybe 12S later on.
    I just looked up the world record car setup: He uses a 1875KV Neu-motor on 12S with a 240A castle marine esc. Gear ratio looks similar to your car.

      @RcOffroad9513 Před 3 lety +2

      @@thunderstormrc that is a big issue here. I would keep the motors but go down in lipo cells, maybe 6s on each, Just cause an esc is rated at 16s, dont mean you can 47n any motor safely, we only run 4s in offroad 1/8 with 1900kv. Anything over 6s needs to be low or it will draw too many amps for the esc. Like I ran a 5600kv castle on 3s and the the 60 amp esc cant run that motor on 3s, larger amp draw than a 4300, ect

  • @hegedusrp
    @hegedusrp Před 3 lety +30

    If you do the math you can find out that the gearing is way off with those high kv motors and the spur and pinion deleted. The theoretical top speed comes out to be around 500mph on 12s. You should aim around 250 to reach 203mph. Also if you use two motors two escs, you should connect the two escs or the two groups of batteries in parallel becoulse the rear motor does most of the work while accelerating and the front motor when braking which charges the batteries. You could possibly overcharge one of the two battery groups, and we know that's not good for them. Oh and please do not say once again 16s, 24s, 28s or 100v, unless you can measure that voltage on the car. it's two independent systems in the car, and it's not running the voltages you are saying. By the way I hope you brake the record as soon as possible so keep up!

    I love it! Once your new ESCs are installed, you must put canards or an XO-1 type front spoiler on front. You may even want a slightly angled rear spoiler. This thing will want to take off. Gallant efforts so far! I believe U're going to accomplish what U've set out to do.

    Is there a mode to make your steering have wayyy less travel for those high speeds?

    • @randempedestrian
      @randempedestrian Před 3 lety +2

      Yep, depending on the radio you can turn down the dual rate (overall sensitivity) and/or the exponential 'rate' (steering curve, so to speak)

    • @bodywerks
      @bodywerks Před 3 lety

      On my R/C jets, or any R/C aircraft, you can run a GPS interface that lowers control surface travel the faster the plane goes, or if you have a gyro, it changes gain with speed. I'm sure you can do it with a car.

      @statementleaver8095 Před 3 lety +1

      Yes
      RC aircraft have a twin stick 2xthumb rod controller. (Invertable mode and adjustable power graded switch)
      Whereas this man is using one of the cheapest controllers on the market with a trigger and wheel!!!
      EDIT The controller in use has an return to central position!!!

    I like that you're trying Kev, but you need to know your electrics first. The difference between parallel and series is basic, then currents and ratios. Do the math, (or science if you will), then approach this from your findings. I see many helpful comments here, use your community. :) Best of luck!

      If you've watched this guy videos, you'd realize he is the Jeremy Clarkson of RC cars (despite looking more like Richard Hammond) - Mildly entertaining but clueless about electronics and mechanical engineering. I remember encountering other students at university who thought they were kings of electronics because they played with RC cars before, but completely shit themselves when they were introduced to LVD, EMC, RED compliance because they only knew about brand manufacturers and not design concepts.

      at this level, even the tiniest add on or modification is extremely complicated and complex, an fpv camera (with its shape and weight), will add a host of problems including but not limited to- aerodynamics , weight distribution , center of gravity etc. At extreme speeds these factors exponentially affect expected results. but great idea bro!

    AS an ex RC racer who participated at Velodrome speed runs, first can't run that much power on parking lot need smooth track. I see big problem with motors not being coupled together. I ran ran two motors and two battery's with two controllers but motors shared main spur gear. This was back in mid 90's at Domingus hills velodrome. Speeds at about 80+ if I remember. You had to make full lap not just straight. I think Nic Case was there also, Cliff Lett and all the big boys of the time. I think Cliff took that day with 80+ run, I smacked the wall well the car was toast, was cool though! Z.K.
