Hi Greg,
thank you for your input, i will attach an excel sheet with my hardpoints.
I know that there is a difference between forced base and geometrical roll center, yet I don't know what the difference is.
Maybe you can link me an article about that, i'd be very thankful for that.

I absolutely agree with you. But since the upright is already fix aswell as the chassis hardpoints, there is nothing i can improve.
That's why all I can do is, change the position of the upright and the lengths of the control arms.
It doesn't bother me that the roll center is negative, but the...
Indeed. It blows my mind that it is negative at equilibrium too.
I've attached a plot of "toe angle over wheel travel" for parallel travel.

Thank you for your replies.
I'm merely working with what I've got. The steering system is fix, aswell as the upright. All I can change are the control arms.
Maybe I am plotting the wrong? roll center. I only know how to plot "wheel travel" over "roll center center location vertical".
I have...
Hi guys,
Currently I am working with Adams/car to improve the suspension of our formula student racing car. There is one particular problem I encounter, when plotting.
I have been using the fsae template to remodel our current suspension. That has worked almost without a problem.
The problem...
