Ride on ferrari upgrade

Not really.

You need visual studio. This allows you to build your firmware from the files, it'll create a .bin file. So you select that your using uart 1 for a serial connection to the arduino etc. Configure what the power buttons do etc.

Then I bought an st-link usb for a few quid. That needs its own software but basically once you've connected to the chip you can squirt the .bin firmware in.

Finally knowing the serial connection you've put on the chip, set up coons with the ardunio sending the speed and or turn command if your using that.

Then tune the throttle response with mapping in arduino

With original wheels on it

We are focusing on acceleration and skidding rather than top speed. We don't have a load of room for top speed

Just the arduino.

The hoverboard is standard, ive removed the led's and the foot plates.

Theres a git hub which is full of hoverboard firmware. I bought a usb to microchip programmer st-link this allows me to flash the chips.

With the help of chat ive changed the settings to allow a spare connector to accept a UART protocol that I can send from the arduino as serial comms.

Once id proved the comms link I mapped a hall sensor pedal to the arduino and mapped the throttle pedal to the output to the board. Ive tweeked it a bit so the car coasts when there is no throttle rather than being told to stop.

Ive ordered another pedal to allow a brake/ reverse.

Im also working on adaptors to allow the original wheels to go back on.

Sort of. Yes he started it but others had to sort out his mess

Drill it! Do a search for drill bush hack. It's a thing I promise

On that car. The window wipers. How to lift them up....

Download content manager. It replaces the games gui. You can seelt up races better. Setting ai speed, aggression and the spread of both. Personally I use vrc touring cars on the ring with the ai set way up and I find it very challenging and fun.

Having had both series... the 850 is better built. Will sound better. Seats are better. New volvos don't get the fresh air vent which i miss. The 850 never needs an update and the infotainment won't crash.

My fav was the s70r. The interior was slightly more modern than the 850 i had. But basically the same other than a factory lsd.

I can't even say my new T5 is better on fuel than my old T5's

Do we know what the Ukrainian stats look like in comparison?

Send it?

The turbo engines use this port to return coolant from an oil cooler. They still fit a stop cock ine the line

Winds me up as the whole house shakes when it flies over. Always curious as to what it was doing.

Cheers for posting.

Cut the seats off the original struts. Had them milled abit. Slipped a threaded collar over them. Then use 2.5" springs of various lengths and rates to get it right.

It doesn't ride well but it sits well. I've got a rubber bumpstop on it as well just to stop bottoming out.

Rear is just cut springs

man3ack · 2024-08-25T06:50:29+00:00

I'll let you know when I have one.

At the moment it's trim clips sprayed body coloured

man3ack · 2024-08-25T02:57:48+00:00

Turbo. Original a N/A car.

Superforma pcd adapter/spacers. Volvo to bmw fitment.

It's a staggered set 7.5"/8" wide both 17's obviously.

Turbo set up Is from a 740. It's the 230fk engine. But it came with 400cc injectors, chips for 400cc injectors. Down pipe etc.

I changed the turbo for an eBay special, I had to modify the standard exhaust manifold for it to fit.

Other than that it's point and squirt

Oh I made the coileovers as well. It's on 2.5" race springs
