Thanks John!

Trent, thanks! I start in late July. I would prefer to live no more than 20 minutes away from Dearborn, but could do 30 minutes if the neighborhood was really cool. For fun I'd like go to concerts,...

We looked very closely at using a servo motor. There are some high-torque "smart motors" that could be used with a gearbox; however, significant setup and testing time would likely be required and in...

Hi Everyone,

I was fortunate enough to be offered a position at Ford in Dearborn (largely due to my FSAE involvement) and am looking into housing. What are some good areas to check out that have...

While the Lincoln Airport is amazing and the city itself is pretty cool, moving the competition back to California (or perhaps Washington state) would result in many more interested volunteers and...

We are using a left and right mold and did so on our last chassis--but I would not necessarily recommend this route. By using a top and bottom mold you can set all suspension pickups with the mold...

I agree with Nick. It is your job as an engineer to at least do some research/work yourself before asking for "the answer."

We used an aluminum that is know for good bend-abilty and low stress...

I have 3x STACK 100mm sensors available. Shipping would be from California.

Many members of my team are in full support of delaying the rules change until next year when they can be distributed before conceptual and detailed design. Here are some reasons:

Hi All,

I'm selling 3 STACK brand linear potentiometers. The shipping address will have to be in the US please. On to the SPECS:

Brand: Stack
Model: ST973
Stroke: 4"/100CM
Connector: loose...

Thanks Randy. Great shots!

Hi All,

I am looking into using TeXtreme to construct wings for the 2015 Cal Poly FSAE car.

Please forgive me if I missed this in my search, but how are you all laying up your TeXtreme?...

Looking for a set right away. Bolt pattern is not so important as long as the face between the bolt pattern is flat.

Thanks Harry and Julian.

All, I've done some searching--without success--for clarification on rule T9.3:

T9.3 Minimum Radii of Edges of Aerodynamic Devices
T9.3.1 All wing edges including wings, end plates, Gurney flaps,...

The equation is pretty simple actually.

Test wing + rigid mount + desired speed + redneck truck = yes/no

215

Seriously though, we hit the wing at our target speed and had 0 damage to the...

Harry,

A thread might be good. Even if the rules have been decided as Michael believes, perhaps this could ensure a sufficient delay before roll out for the teams on a 2 year design cycle.
...

As the design season for 2015 is beginning, this thread should probably be revisited.

My team has generated a list reasons we feel are highly supportive of not implementing a spec aero package...

We have 3 for sale. Stroke is about 200mm. The body is long for an FSAE car's suspension travel, but they can be made to work with the proper mounts. $150 for all 3.
