CAD Spins
Chassis
Notes:
- Current mass: 7.5 kg
- Consider where to switch to a clamping mount around the CF tube instead of adhesive bonding
- Consider where to bond to the outside of the tube VS the inside
- Fear of inner mounts puncturing CF tube (i.e. at base of vertical CF stand)
- Simplify mounting blocks to require less complex boring
- Look for OTS clamp for rocker beam
- Believe we're okay without a cross beam → aluminum surface plates should increase stiffness and resist torsional loads
...
- Consider Gimbal routing low priority
Suspension/Legs
Notes:
- Don't use bolts for alignment, use just for clamping. Use steps and dowel holes to align critical pieces
- Consider reamer sizes for fits needed VS boring bar
Wheel connections
Notes:
Differential bar
