*Weight Transfer Part 2 - Dynamic Weight Transfer* Ray Munday
*Weight Transfer Video - Fundamentals Part 2 Dynamic Weight Transfer*
Weight transfer is a critical but very misunderstood part of vehicle dynamics. In this (Part 2) of this video Ray covers the dynamics of weight transfer including the effects of roll centres, springs and shocks and how you can use them to tune the handling of the car at different stages of a corner.
Any questions ask away!

Quick footage of August 2019 training day This was taken on one of my training day sessions in 2019. A group of RC racers who wanted to improve their skills got together, I booked the track and we had a full day of RC skills training. More of these will be happening in 2020 and beyond

    The suspention DOES transfer weight, but not necessarily the REASON it happens… obviously suspention doesnt compress until the load starts to shift… the suspention controls the transfer.

  • @kyhonjan
    @kyhonjan 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Brilliant simple explanation thanks. Just a thought would the resultant torque of the motor through the rear axle and tyre that is in contact with the ground during acceleration create a moment that would contribute to load shift experienced? If so then for high bite surface the main way to maximize rear traction would be to have a forward weight bias. Maybe it's explained in Part2. Will go to that now. Cheers.

    • @rmunday76
      @rmunday76 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi mate, drag brake is similar to resting slightly on the brake. This helps the car automatically 'trail brake' into corners, helping to transfer weight onto the front end for more steering but without adding so much brake as to lock the wheels and lose grip. Drag brake is much more consistent than using the trigger to control small brake inputs into each corner.

    • @rmunday76
      @rmunday76 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi mate, it depends on what is causing it. Sometimes it's because the car turns in too fast - in which case lower front roll centre can help. Sometimes its because the rear slides and then the tyres catch and flip, in which case a lower rear roll centre can help. Generally heavier damping will help and stiffer springs will help.

    The whole concept of setting up roll centre still have me baffled. Adding / removing +1mm shims on inside ball studs affects roll centre but I can never seem to notice the change. Would be great to have a follow up episode to explore this further. Thanks Ray for another very informative video.

    • @rmunday76
      @rmunday76 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's a complicated subject as the geometry of the suspension also controls camber gain, scrub etc. Depending on feedback from this video it may be a future subject to run through some examples. A 1mm inner stud change should be noticeable as long as the car is in a decent window of setup - if it's outside that window sometimes it can be hard to pick . Maybe send me a pm with your setup and can help in more detail.
