Chassis

  • flip rocker and bogie end

...

  • take a look at the flexing of the top plate

    • 10/15 kg arm on the plate may flex

    • add some clamps onto the carbon fiber rods

  • carbon fiber

    • make additional pieces to test and play around with

    • bigger factor of safety for carbon fiber

    • validate the carbon fiber

    • bond strength between carbon fiber and aluminum is variable

    • glass beads to fill the gap between epoxy and aluminum to prevent touching

    • avoid carbon fiber touching aluminum

    • strength testing on the instron on campus

      • google this to get some good data

      • bonding related to formula sae suspension arm

  • measure the carbon fiber tubes before manufacture

  • flip the bolt around in that block so it can be disassembled

  • chassis will react to the arm movement whole thing will wiggle with arm movement - be aware of that

  • pem nut some of the aluminum sheet metal parts - smaller detail

  • flanged hex blots to eliminate washers no need for socket heads - small detail

  • no issue boring that depth - boring bar, might not be able to bore in one go

  • do a circular cut out instead of a square slot

  • to get haas training you must go in with a CNC -reasonable part

  • need to refine some of the features

  • should add a step to make the expoxy joint concentric (see 4th link)

  • why have those plastic blocks - switch plastic to aluminum (make the block taller)
