    Makes sense that your car needs suspension on the road. Would you take a car with no suspension on an interstate highway? That'd be a bumpy ride

  • GAV1B (improved suspension) 8.9 years ago

    That would work, because big hits need to rebound slower to dissipate energy slower, whereas lots of small hits need faster rebound because even though there is less energy stored, you need all your suspension travel for each hit and to do that you need it to rebound faster @Typhlosion130

  • GAV1B (improved suspension) 8.9 years ago

    then you need to put Spring strength down a bit more because it is not soaking up enough energy. It could also be because your shocks are not rebounding fast enough and you're hitting bumps while they're still compressed @Typhlosion130

  • GAV1B (improved suspension) 8.9 years ago

    You sure?
    Set spring strength to minimum and it will collapse
    Set damping to minimum and spring to max and it will bounce
    Set spring strength to whatever it needs to be so you have 20% sag and give it high or max damping and I guarantee it will be almost perfect

    Read this @Typhlosion130

  • GAV1B (improved suspension) 8.9 years ago

    Must be different on cars then cos it's different for MTB @Typhlosion130

  • GAV1B (improved suspension) 8.9 years ago

    I'll just turn off wheel suspension cos it just causes issues with heavy vehicles

  • GAV1B (improved suspension) 8.9 years ago

    Wrong way round, damping slows down the rebound and Spring strength makes the spring stronger @Typhlosion130

  • GAV1B (improved suspension) 8.9 years ago

    I think what's happening when the wheel suspension is bouncing is that it bottoms out permanently from the weight and then it has a heap of stored energy. Maybe the wheel suspension is not strong enough on this truck? It worked with my lightweight buggy anyway @Typhlosion130

  • GAV1B (improved suspension) 8.9 years ago

    I do think it stops it from bouncing a little but not much @Typhlosion130

  • GAV1B (improved suspension) 8.9 years ago

    Oh, yea the weel oops my bad @Typhlosion130

  • GAV1B (improved suspension) 8.9 years ago

    it makes it a LOT better actually cos damping is what STOPS it from bouncing. Take off the suspension on this and you'll see what I mean @Typhlosion130

  • GAV1B (improved suspension) 8.9 years ago

    Oh yea, I put that in as well cos from my experimentation it helps it a little but maybe not that much @Typhlosion130

  • GAV1B (improved suspension) 8.9 years ago

    Downforce and no suspension simply does not work on a SAM truck drone thingy @Typhlosion130

  • GAV1B (improved suspension) 8.9 years ago

    Also, I prefer suspension and big wings with dihedral to no suspension and downforce even if it doesn't go as fast. @Typhlosion130

  • GAV1B (improved suspension) 8.9 years ago

    Actually, I made that suspension myself, but yours are better and I'll use them for the next one @Typhlosion130

  • ZENRIN Matsuri City (Fukuoka) MAP 8.9 years ago

    So is this an extra island you can travel to, or does it replace the normal maps?

  • GRV1A DAKAR 8.9 years ago

    Thanks! @SimpleEric

  • GAV1B (improved suspension) 8.9 years ago

    @Typhlosion130 how about this suspension?

  • T-5-C Super bolt 8.9 years ago

    Why are cars with no suspension getting the best times? Pretty sure simple planes physics doesn't do suspension that well cos to get it to work right you just put strength and damping to max and that just ain't right

    @Scorpio228 you may be interested in this

  • Pushrod Frame 8.9 years ago

    Well, fair enough, it seems to work @HelpDesk7

  • GAV1B (improved suspension) 8.9 years ago

    Feedback on this new suspension design would be much appreciated:)

  • GRV1A DAKAR 8.9 years ago

    Feedback on this new suspension design would be much appreciated :)

  • GAV1B (improved suspension) 8.9 years ago

    @Scorpio228 check this out

  • GAV1B (improved suspension) 8.9 years ago

    @davet3 check out this suspension. Ive learned everything i know about suspension from mountain biking so i thought why not put it on a car and it actually worked pretty good.

  • Dirty Cruiser 8.9 years ago

    I think it does have suspension if you look closely, but it's pretty small @Typhlosion130

  • Double V8 Hot Rod: Double Trouble 8.9 years ago

    Daymn that engine must way a lot

    Wheels don't have to be put on rotators btw

  • Riding Dirty 8.9 years ago

    Wonder what the next tournament will be? Gliders? Gold Prix? Drag race? Something else entirely? @AndrewGarrison

  • T-4E-2 The Blue bolt 8.9 years ago

    Edit: I won three rounds until I got to you

  • MK.lll (FAT MAN) 8.9 years ago

    Yeah it's pretty cool, but can't the model replica go big boom boom? Then it would be a true replica in fact. All you have to do is fill it with boom 50s @pixelconcqueror

  • MK.lll (FAT MAN) 8.9 years ago

    But does it go big boom boom? Need big boom boom!

  • Dampfwanze I 8.9 years ago

    Good job! No idea how you did that with this thing no offence. it wasn't as if you even had advanced suspension...

  • T-4E-2 The Blue bolt 8.9 years ago

    @Typhlosion you crashed in one round, but you easily beat me in the other two. I won two rounds until I got to you

  • Luna Aurelia 8 8.9 years ago

    Bit late for testing. The deadlines in 3 hours @Alienbeef0421

  • THE BUILD ANYTHING CHALLENGE!!! 8.9 years ago

    Started testing yet?

  • Military chassis 6x6 46k lb weight Load limit 8.9 years ago

    Thanks, it was pretty obvious and I feel stupid now. I've made that mistake before actually @davet3

  • Military chassis 6x6 46k lb weight Load limit 8.9 years ago

    Looks cool, and I'm sorry I need help but.... My truck don't work

  • LiamW's Military truck 8.9 years ago

    Sorry, the suspension simply isn't strong enough for this heavy beast and it goes out of control with that engine. I think I'll make my own suspension, but do you mind if I keep the thing you added on the front? I'll credit you and it'll be a successor of this post probably

  • Modded stuff 2 8.9 years ago

    Awesome @mustafanaveed

  • Modded stuff 2 8.9 years ago

    What do the missiles and bombs do? Didn't see them in the description

  • Rocket Challenge (FINISHED) 8.9 years ago

    Might get around to it...
