- In this video i take the Random Ramp out to the track for some initial prototype testing. Other than a doppler sensor issue it goes very well and i don't even break anything on it or the Sledge
Awesome field testing. What a epic ramp. Thanks for sharing Brian.
Thanks buddy! It needs more testing and refinement but it worked surprisingly well for its maiden test. Thanks for checking it out
super cool idea! I've been very interested in seeing this come together since you showed us the concept! I've always fashioned myself as an outside of the box thinker but you're on a whole different level Brian!
As far as the driving skill? I wouldn't give it a second thought brother.... I don't think any of us are any kind of "wheelmen"! 😂
Thanks for continuing to share your awesome creations with us!
Thanks Todd. the reality is i way more enjoy the working on things than driving them. I just saw your Sherp video and that is a very cool little vehicle. Thanks for checking it out
@@RCWalletVacuum I definitely enjoy the design and wrenching more myself. Completely understand!
Great job Brian. You got the ramp fully functional. All your hard work paid off and it came out fabulous.
Thanks alot! I'm hoping to get some testing in soon to work out the bugs. Thanks for checking it out
Can't believe I'm just finding this video now. I gotta remember that youtube doesn't suggest your videos to me. Sweet ramp design. Way over my head on the tech side. Haha... perfect test veichle. The sludge. Haha.
I think you could get some good air. And I like how it's adjustable. I built my ramp from steel.. now I think it's to steep. So major surgery to change the approach angle. In spring I'll get my ramp adjusted for sanity..lol
Hey Wally, there is a prior video to this where i go over a little more of the build features and there will be a follow up video on some modifications to make it more field worthy that i'm currently doing.
That’s epic! Super awesome idea .. thank you for sharing the test!! Super cool ! It’s nice to see stuff like this !
Thanks Big John! I'm always glad to hear from you
@@RCWalletVacuum I’m always glad to heart from you too !?
Might wanna get a patent on that baby! Imagine incorporating it into an 1/ 8 scale pro track.👊💥💥
Well it would definitely make for an interesting race with no one being able to judge how to hit the ramp lol. Thanks for checking it out
It's not worth a patent. Some professional companies can make a slight change and the patent would be useless. Not everything is worth patenting. It's not cheap to do. You have to have a market for it too. Plus it is a bunch of store-bought products from other manufacturers you would have to give royalties if they even let you use their product in the patent. People throw out the word patent too easily without knowing how it works.
More rocket science!! I’d call this a successful trial!! Good work. Definitely call the patent office
Hey Kyle, are you surviving all the snow we have been getting,lol? I'll work on fine tuning this so it will be ready for launching your vehicles next season. Always good to hear from you. Thanks for checking it out
Interesting test 👍 Maybe if using lower curve in the rotating part , car don't flip over that easy.
Hey Jukka, the biggest problem is that the driver sucks, lol. Thanks for checking it out
That’s pretty cool man, nice work👍
Thanks PaintenDave and wishing you a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year. Thanks for checking it out
@@RCWalletVacuum hey Thanks Happy New Year to you and your family,all the best in2024👍
Sweet work bro 👍🏼
Thanks buddy. I just saw your latest redcat hybrid vehicle video and it would get some serious air of the ramp
You are to smart for youtube bro.. you didn't get no college education because your TOO Smart bro.. Best we teach ourselves anyhow. I got some rc,s we can test on your ramp. I have about 4 1/8 scale electric bashers and my nitros and others lol
Thanks Wally, i have a lot of respect for you and what you do on your channel so that means a lot coming from you. You are always welcome to visit and if you get a chance check out the video i posted this week from last weekends trip to do some hill climbing in the snow with the tracked Rovan
@RCWalletVacuum we will make that happen when the weather is better. Say summer time 😁 your snow run is awesome. What a beast. The fun is in testing and building the next modification. 😎
Totally cool 👍
Thanks JR, you need a scaled up version for doing back flips with your RM125. Thanks for checking it out
What is it supposed to do? The ramp.
I did a previous video explaining its function, but basically the vehicle gets sensed when approaching the ramp then a random number is generated and used to turn a stepper motor which moves an adjustable kick plate to change the ramps launch geometry. Once the vehicle crosses the ramp, its detected by an accelerometer and the kick plate re-homes. Thanks for checking it out
