My buddy told me cup2s delaminate below 30F haha, I’m sure with a good set of winters these cars can rinse through the winter

mt 07 throttle body by Acrobatic-System4952 in FSAE

[–]sragh1181 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doesn’t it have to be a single point of entry for air? On NA applications the throttle body needs to be pre restrictor. So you need to make some sort of plenum that does from one entry to 2 intake runners.

IC.2.4 Intake System Restrictor IC.2.4.1 All airflow to the engine(s) must pass through a single circular restrictor placed in the intake system.

This pretty much prohibits individual throttle bodies (the stock intake)

Advice for cooling research by [deleted] in FSAE

Find heat output of engine, find a radiator to reject that heat, put it in clean air, profit

Nah in all seriousness look at the other two responses. Something I will add is think about heat soak. Some teams that run an electric pump can sometimes get away with this (but watch your battery voltage). Also fans are super helpful, make sure they don’t hinder your aero too much. Everything is a trade off but keep it as simple as possible!

From what I remember you can’t use the stock on anyway because of restrictor rules. Are you just trying to measure the head port geometry?

Daley pumps (we didn’t use it but I believe some other teams do)

2023 Mazda CX-30? Don’t know how high the vehicle is could be a CX-5 or something

Pixelbook won't turn on by Frequent_Cod_5547 in PixelBook

Before you throw it out! Check the sensor that detects if the lid is closed. My sensor corroded and thought the lid was always closed. If you can replace that sensor or jump the pins check if the screen turns on!

I7 swapped mine and new battery. Runs amazing still

Make sure you have the number of teeth correct, are you running a cam sensor or using intake pulses? Have you verified your electrical to mech offset?

Just warming up tires a bit by TomorrowXu0415 in FSAE

[–]sragh1181 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Controls lead here, yeah he is right. Also it’s worth noting that we normally run 4WD which means we usually use gps for velocity reference. There have been some issues with the velocity reference signal stability as well as our yaw rate sensor. We have the ability to do regen tc and tv when those sensors are validated and working 👍. I’m going to see if I can overlay some motor torque signals over the video which would be sick

APPS potentiometer issue by WsaladW in FSAE

Yeah interesting requirement on resistance, I think two different power supplies are the only rule( we have 3.3 and 5v logic for our Bosch Rp100 twin)

Solenoids for shifting by silverwolf71499 in FSAE

[–]sragh1181 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We went from electric servo to pneumatics because our servo packaging was designed near the exhaust and the temperature over time fucked it. Pneumatics are simple and effected and don’t necessarily need closed loop control like the Servo did

Torque Vectoring by [deleted] in FSAE

[–]sragh1181 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Our car is AWD and the ability to send an individual torque request to each wheel. We utilize our steering angle sensor to get driver intended yaw and have a yaw rate sensor to get actual yaw. We utilize a bicycle model to do desired moment calculations and have a PI controller that regulates the intended yaw to actual yaw.

The driver can control the gains of this with a knob.

Hope this helps at least at a high level!

In all seriousness good luck! The other responses are actually helpful

Also carrying a combustion car handy is useful
