    camber gain and fvsa lenght

    Does your camber gain due to roll not depend on your suspension geometry? I have tried to draw a model of1 degrees of body roll, but it's giving me weird answers. ( my tires are off the ground and the cambers are wrong but I'm seeing around 5 degrees per degree of roll ). I also drew up a model...

    camber gain and fvsa lenght

    Without using tire data (I just don't have time to learn or look at it) is there any way of knowing that your outside tire will not reach positive camber with respect to the chassis under a certain acceleration? Our roll centers are actually -1.31 front and +0.32" in the back. thanks

    camber gain and fvsa lenght

    Yes I do have the tire data for our tires. Where can i find this matlab code?

    camber gain and fvsa lenght

    yes i've been wanting to use that tire data but i never quite understood how to use it nor had the time.

    camber gain and fvsa lenght

    ~12.5 in cg, 45/55 distribution, 7.5" 1.5 degress/g which is stiff because we don't have a anti-roll bar. 175 lb/in springs in the front 200 lb/in in the rear. formula sae competion. The -1in front an +1in rear induces understeer characteristics, reduce lateral load transfer during cornering and...

    camber gain and fvsa lenght

    Hi, I am trying to justify have a very long fsva lenght and very small camber gain. The RCH in the front is -1in below ground and +1in in the rear. The static camber is set to -3 degrees. Out fvsa lenght is 875in which translates to a negligible camber grain during compression...
