Aris, this is fantastic, thank you. I just started using Motec today and had no idea about how to read the section on dampers. You have been able to explain this as well as show me how to adjust the damper settings in ACC and give me further guidance on these settings. Perfect!
Thank you so much. I would like to see more about dampers/springs. The affect of ride height compare time throug the corner entry,midlle, out. And movement through the chicane.
As always, you are a great teacher, Aris. I must be a bad student because I always forget about some of the concepts you explain even though I've watched your livestreams so many times 🤣🤣. Hopefully I'll be able to catch one soon, my new job killed my free time :/.
LOVE the T-shirt Aris! But the truth is AMG? LOL I'm biased as i once owned one. Great video and clarification of an somewhat complicated topic! Cheers
Thank you for your amazing videos mate. I am learning a lot with your channel. I followed all the video and I get my symmetric Gauss bell both front and rear bumpers in Motec, but the car then was a bit understeer, so I click -1 for both rear bump and rebound as you suggest. And yep the car was more driveable. But, when I check the graphic on Motec again I lost the symmetry of the rear graphic. Any suggestions?
Glad you like them! Don't worry about the symmetry. You need the symmetry to make sure that you start from a good base. Once you achieve it you can and should go a bit away from it to make the car handle exactly as you like it.
This is great ! Now… what do us poor console types with no telemetry do? I have one corner at Silverstone where the front bounces up and down as I’m trying to get the power down on exit. So I’ll give it a go stiffening the slow bump and rebound at the front.
You can definitely have asymmetric damper settings and for sure they might help with specific tracks. For example you might be hitting a high kerb only on the left side and so you might need different fast dampers on the left side.
There's not a specific boundary or "knee" as they call it, because ACC uses proper damper graphs and each click (and each click on each car) has a completely different curve in different velocities. So you need to take a generic speed boundary and work from there. That's why the histograms are in % of speed travel
OMG! I finally understand how the Dampers work!
I’ve been search the last few weeks, how it works and now my prayers have been answered lol.
Thanks! Glad it helped you. In the near future I'll make some more videos on dampers

Thanks Aris, I think i am finally ready to open the dampers section of the setup which was totally ignored until now :D

Grazie per la chiarissima spiegazione!
Amazing stuff Professor Aris!
Glad you enjoyed it
Next step: distinguishing fast and slow damper settings and how to exploit them for better grip (road holding and normal force oscillation) :)
Amazing explanation ! Great video, thanks Aris
Glad you liked it!

Super simple and usefull, thank you!
Excellent Spinal Tap reference.

This actually helps explain why the three damper settings on my Audi behave like they do. Too stiff, too soft and just right :)
Can you have RR different rebound than the LR?? or should they be the same rebound??
You can definitely have asymmetric damper settings and for sure they might help with specific tracks. For example you might be hitting a high kerb only on the left side and so you might need different fast dampers on the left side.
Nice work! Thank you
What hi/lo speed boundary is correct for acc? is it car dependent?
There's not a specific boundary or "knee" as they call it, because ACC uses proper damper graphs and each click (and each click on each car) has a completely different curve in different velocities.

@@ArisDrives thank you for taking your time to answer ✌️
I thought that this was about coronavirus spreading from the thumbnail

Thanks, Aries for keep as teaching
