Throttle pulse reminds me of the late great F1 driver Ayrton Senna's unusual driving style using a pulse or feathering throttle technique of up to several times per second I believe, for traction control, nobody knew he was doing that until a team member keyed in on subtle sound difference, so they wired Senna up for some data and a graph of his pedal action, very unusual and innovative driving style.

Legendary Smash! Im starting to wonder if Rlaarlo did this speed challenge to sell spare parts ! LOL! I just got my carbon brushless and its beautiful. Every car i've run over 80mph has destroyed lipos, arms, chassis, turnbuckles, you name it. There is no "durable" car that can withstand an impact that you demonstrated. people who blame the car have never speed run, this is just a normal weekend a speed runner.

Have you checked the diffs? I've found diffs that are too open really aren't ideal when trying to put power down, they usually open up and spin one wheel way faster which just makes the car really unstable.

Nice runs! I think to run this very small, light car straight at speed there’s going to have to be some really meticulous suspension/chassis setup. Shock limiters for sure, looks like heavier springs as well. Is there any way to get rid of the excessive toe-in in the rear? Different pills, maybe? Thanks for the great vids, man! I don’t know when my AK917 will finally show up, but I’m really looking forward to it.

@MatthewSimm Жыл бұрын

I think the servo may be the issue (twitching at low speeds) i dont think its returning properly/ very accurate, until its forced to at higher speeds. Ill be trying a new servo soon and hopefully that fixes the issue, because when i got mine straight, it held really well!

Pretty cool looking car! I do have one small question though; why do you keep the spare wheel on the car during runs? it's just extra weight, isn't it? cheers and keep up the good work!

@extec101 Жыл бұрын

extra weight can most of the time be good in a top speed run as aero is more of a factor then more mass in the car to make the suspension work rather then the car bouncing on the springs and it gives a initial downwards force making the tyres gripp that gains as downforce start to work. look att a bugatti veyron heavy car it seems compared to an ariel atom that is light for turns and acceleration but the bugatti is more for top speed and at 400km/h aerodynamic drag is a major factor more then what more mass does to initial acceleration in the start of the runn.

Have you considered extending the floor forward ahead of the body and bumper to create a air splitter? This will reduce the air flow under the car. Reducing that flow will reduce air pressure under the car. That will improve down force, grip and stability.

Thanks for the test. And seeing how much efforts, material and money Raz Shifrin puts into his projects, I highly doubted that a mass produced car would reach that announced speed. It's a nice model with many details and functions, and that should it be. I drove often over 120 mph over the Autobahn and I can assure you it's more stress than fun, even in an E-class. So in my mind a model hasn't to be so fast.
