Just got 3.33 over three sets. My best by far was the bisecting the angle where I got 1.1 0.3 0.6. This is strangely adicting

Yeah Buddy!
pictures pending approval. A bit of a departure from the teams so far...
Everyone so far seems to have really nice big shop space. We're not so lucky, we've got half a room. Our machine shop is pretty nice but it's the department's shop so we have to share it with all the...
So we don't have a baja team at our school (we do have to share space with the electric bus but thats a story for another day) but a few of us were killing time instead of doing homework and we came...

Any post that has a url in it needs approval. If you want your stuff to go through instantly don't include urls.
Wow UCF you guys have a ton of space. I'm really jealous.
We just use GoJo, it works well enough. I know I read an article about this last year where they compared a bunch of different types, I think it was in grassroots motorsport but it might have been in...
We got our tubes laser cut by Carrol Racing Development in California. They turned out pretty nice and the price was very good. The total cost was about $1200 including material and getting the...
I totally agree. Most teams (including ours) don't even take any of those factors into account. We don't have time to tune the car for fuel economy, if we get some points great, if not too bad. It...
I haven't used them in an FSAE application but Hitec RCD makes some very good servos. We use them exclusively at the robotics lab that I work at.
We have an electric clutch but as I'm not the electronics guy i don't know that much about it. One step in the right direction though would be looking at linear actuators instead of servos, a servo...
This car has so much win. I would trade my e46 for it in a heartbeat.
There is a sticky post about this at the top of the Open FSAE Discussion forum, towards the bottom of the page there are instructions about how to get them for free.
We tried this last year on our dimension elite 3d printer and it didn't work out so well. We tried to 3d print the entire intake but after we had it on the car we kept getting cracking around the...
Simpson sells them, but you have to make sure you get the right sub belts. We just got a harness from simpson without them, luckly you can buy the subbelts seperatly with the right adjusters...
I think we have you beat. Driving the car on the dyno at 1am, then driving the truck to California at 10am. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
UB has you both beat. Tuning the engine in the pits of VIR and...
Dude it get terrible fuel economy because I tuned it! The smoke coming out the tailpipe is from all the extra POWER.
My favorite from our team. Some of you may remember us from Acceleration last year.

The driver still blames the electronics guy's launch control....
Yeah according to this thread one of the WWU people claim the car was around 420 lbs due to the use of composites and the use of the engine/transmission as a stressed portion of the chassis.
I wonder what it is about ABBA that makes all FSAE teams listen to it...
keep in mind that you don't need a really recent engine. Plenty of teams (including ours) are still using the F4i which provides plenty of power for a good price. Plus there is pretty much infinite...
maybe I'm retarded but I can't seem to find the igis files you speak of. All I can find on your website are .dwg and .dxf files. Can you provide a direct link to the files?
