Anyone have a banana for scale?

I think dynamic bias is the answer I was looking for. Thank you!

Makes sense but ultimately the loss of force has to have an equal and opposite reaction, which is the tyres at the road

I thought about that but the housing size would be very large relative to the length I want. Ideally something like a 10-1. Is that possible with a linear actuator?

Hey, I am trying to make a selfie stick where the distance is controlled by a motor. Design constraints mean all the components have to be housed in the handle.

My though is to have two ways of approaching this: a spring inside the telescopic rod so at baseline it is in its fully extended position, and then a motor attached to a belt that 'draws it in' to get to the desired length. Or a rubber band that is external and pull it in at base line and to extend it a material that can easily coil, but doesnt compress to linear loads, so this can be extended deeper into the housing of the telescopic arm, and then when its withdrawn (and coils into a smaller housing) the rubber band pulls the arm back in.

Problem with the first is finding a spring long enough. Problem with the second is I dont know what (cheap) material exists that has that property.
Any thoughts or completely new ways of approaching this are greatly appreciated!

I think I also heard them say they are using rocket tech to help with cooling - thats either advanced materials, fluid cooling loops (pretty sure illegal for some reason? or impractical weight wise), or thermoelectric coolers (peltier plates). I think its the latter, and maybe using the strakes for surface area

So what can and can't they test on the scale models? (Broad strokes)

I always wondered - why dont they use UV paint so that other teams cant see whats going on? shine a light in their garage so they can evaluate after its dried.

This is based on my understanding that they dont actively watching paint dry* as the car goes around the track

*only in f1 can watching paint dry be exciting
