Glad you enjoyed it!

@@BSport320 which rear electric motors did you use? Emrax or what?

More to come!

No we didn't, we had inverter problems and the car was not as light as the monocoque cars in that year but we all learned a lot and attracted sponsors.

@@BSport320 very nice

I was looking for the same back in the day but I never found good literature about it. It's basically learning by doing. Slot gap geometry between the profiles alone is a huge topic.

Yes, that was a contrast. We intentionally pushed for efficiency and a low weight aero package. Lap time simulations show that lots of dirty downforce makes you faster but for this first aero package of the team we wanted to learn as much as possible. With the knowledge I have today I would focus more on in-corner downforce, especially because cornering radii in Formula Student are very small.

On it!

Nice stuff and you are welcome! Because the curvature gives you the downforce. The more air you get underneath the car and accelerate there, the more downforce you will get.

I can only tell you about what we were looking for in my team. We were quite focus on people that is able to learn themselve and with compromise with the team. I would tell you to maybe ask via social media with the team your are interested on, and ask them what kind of software do they use (fdm, cad, CFD...) And try to learn something by yourself. Also, it is usual in the interviews to ask technical questions about the department you are choosing (even if you are applying to an static department like business or cost), so it is advisable to study a bit before. And last but not least, be yourself in the interview, be relaxed and if they choose you, be ready to spent quite a lot of hours working but also learning and having fun with your teammates!!

When I started, we didn't even have interviews. We simply took everybody who was interested. If you are going for a technical role, it's always a good idea to be familiar with the current regulations and to be able to use a design program (catia etc.).

@@BSport320 Thank you! I am still learning CAD softwares, current using Fusion 360. I'm also planning to look into CFD soon after I finish all the application essays.

It was a relatively small change in rear right height so that wasn't an issue for us.

The driver should be from same uni tho

@@dhupee damn, it looks fun tho 🙂 can the public come and spectate some of these events? 😊

@@Pilsnor I don't know about that, i joined my team in 2019 and then pandemic happened....if you just saw testing it usually open (teams even share knowledge all around the world) If you have sim wheel you can get AC mod, we play with it sometimes on downtime
