      8:27 portal axle with unlockable diff doesnt make sense at all. It os meant for off roading so it is better to make it without diff than with diff that cant be locked.

    • @carsojant6811

      I have an idea. Make a fully independent suspension vehicle with portal axles and locking differentials. That's what GM did with the hummer.

    Nice showing of suspension designs, but the dif lock has very little to do with suspension design.
    A dif lock can be made by only increasing the width of the differential by 1 gear, that should be possible to fit in most of these setups.
    If the increased width is not acceptable, the dif can be moved and a drive shaft per wheel can be used and depending on the design it could allow steering too.

  • @timramich

      The reason is that it's too thin for a lock and you need an lock for more heavy duty off-road terrain

    These Technic-type parts and pieces were just being released during the latter part of my youth. I had to use rubber bands and ink pen springs for my suspension designs. There's no telling what I could have designed and built. This is awesome.

    • @redshoebox

      The new spring elements definitely give more freedom in suspension designs, but rubber bands are actually quite useful for suspension too, I even use them in my more recent projects.

    Awesome! I love seeing real suspension setups in Lego :D
    The last one, portal axel front suspension, it's very similar to the setup in the 8110. While it is a great one for offroad and a simple design. One big downside I've noticed was the negative caster angle, at higher speeds it becomes extremely unstable and there's a lot of stress on the steering components.
    Not criticism just an observation ^^
    High speed test I did once when I ran my Unimog down the hallway- it violently veered off and crashed in an awesome way. XD

    gearbox: 1/2/3/4
    remote control, using MindStorms hub

    But I have to look at the others too, if there are other things to use for inspiration.

  • @congruentcrib
    @congruentcrib 2 года назад +1

    I do like what you have here. I do wish the suspension system shown were a little more accurate to real cars, but with limitations comes sacrifices. Along with that, a lot of the things on here said no positive caster; every suspension system with steering has some form of caster. Even cars like Mercedes and Audi have caster specs even though when driving there is no caster.

  • @lapaleves
    @lapaleves 2 года назад

    basically all your live axle designs miss a critial cross link. no wonder things get wobbly. i understand one can cheat one or more freedom grades away with suspension etc, but it's not how it works in reality. either there is a double link or a panhard rod. or both.

    I don't think that the live axle front suspension will work in practice since the pins in the shock absorbers have friction so it is very dependent so it's really hard for one side to move.
    I would also like to see them in practice being used
