@LiamW thats why there here. help out people with a nice neat looking pre built shock assemblies. for 2 or 3 shock renforced segments.

Might use these shocks for something yet. I'll credit you.

I'll keep tweaking my car for a bit till I upload it, and I'll upload many versions: a jump zone car, an offroad tournament car and a general offroad car for people to enjoy

Well, if you have lots of little bumps you'll need lower damping for it to rebound FASTER and if you just have a couple of huge hits spread apart, such as jumps, you want higher damping so it rebounds SLOWER. As long as you have 20% sag, your shock strength is right, but if that isn't sufficient, you can give it more travel (more shocks stacked) @Typhlosion130

@LiamW so setting it to a higher percent to adsorb harder impacts or lower? more imporantly. if you got ot my page the LV-1-B. how do you think I could improve that? (its my current entry)

That's how it is with mountain biking anyway, simple planes might need different setups, but that is the basics of suspension setup on anything

@LiamW well that actually helps. I was wondering the idea behidn dampening. and how it works could never really figoure it out. so thanks for that.

Yeah exactly like that. When setting up suspension, you should set the spring strength so that it sags 20% of travel sitting there. Damping start with zero and make a frame and a detacher with o force to drop the car. If it bounces put the damping higher and repeat. You don't want damping too slow though @Typhlosion130

@LiamW you were saying? this is what I use for my designs as a base for most of my suspension. you can see I have etended models for both. but even with that it doesn't always do what I want it too you know.

@Typhlosion130 have you made much progress on it cause when I made it looked like crap

@Dabomb37 yea

@Typhlosion130 did you get the creation I sent you
