AeroMotions downforce splitting rear spoiler in action

- AeroMotion's carbon fiber wing is split into two sections, each one moving independently of one another to offer just the right amount of traction. An on-board computer constantly monitors acceleration, braking and lateral acceleration so it can actively change the pitch of the wing's sections in real-time as the car is being driven, effectively giving more or less downforce to whichever side of the car needs it most.

The weight of the car itself provides downforce on the outer wheel, cornering causes the inner wheel to lift and lose grip causing understeer. If the wing pushes the tyre into the road then this gives more grip, get it ?
go to the site of AeroMotion and you can see three cars (with static wing and the split wing in action ) and see the differend times. there is a 2sec gap between the car that has a stitic wing and the split wing car
they put up roadcourse results with time difference on their website.
nice AIR BRAKE.
I only saw the spoiler go down when acceleration was needed most.
Because the system is based on steering input. Once the steering wheel is centred the wing will revert to it's default position, in a straight line. That is, less drag in a straight line but increased downforce around the corner...it's simple!
Why do i need downforce when i turn left or right. I only need grip on 4 wheel. Downforce is for straight line but Hey the spoiler work as it design for right ! And i Have seen car work fine with out any spoiler.
Of course the effectiveness of the GT wing is depended on speed area of the wing and frontal aero part redirecting the airflow on to that wing to provide down force on the rear wheels and on this application the correct wheel for the corner (left or right) as the differential split more torque to that wheel resulting in higher entry speed and earlier wide open throttle all these little things adds up and shave seconds of your lap. For 7grand is cheap considering F1 ban it because its that good.
so what happens if the car take a knock to the rear in a race? could you replace them as quickly as say a bolt on rear wing? I just see too many things going wrong with it to be effcient, and if driver become relient on it's advantages, the car could behave very differently if it were to fail to work when the driver least expects it. But the FIA will probably class it as a "safety feature" and allow teams who can afford it to run it. My opinion anyway.
Active aerodynamics was available to F1 cars in the late 90's but canceled by the FIA for being to much of an advantage over other cars. I think it was Williams team behind the genius concept. Still, I'm glad a someone has got the balls to put it on a car, though a better macine would of been better, say an Lotus Exige maybe?
So, I'm curious, at the points where the car is breaking into wheelspin in a straight line, why does the wing often appear to go into its lowest angle of attack. 1:02 is a good example.
Let's see this in action at a HIGH SPEED RACETRACK!
Hey? It doesn't, it's right up.
the mitsubishi concept car yeah. same idea, but different design.
this design is still brilliant though
If the statement about steering angle is true, then any sort of drift will mess this thing up badly. But then again, I suppose you don't really need downforce in a slide anyway ;)
No. As the wing structure is rigid, if you were to push down on one side of the car with your hands, the force would lower that side of the car.
It's just like pushing down on your boot at one side.
@cavalier777
You could buy yourself an MX5 or an E36 M3 with that kind of money and still go to the track.
Wowzer thats well cool...
surely this only creates more drag? the car would be just as fast in a straight line without it, no?
genius
@DeadlyFormula lol if you cant afford it it's likely that you also cant afford the track time to use one either. makes sense.
OMG $7,299 for one of these. great idea but im not gonna spend that kind of money for one.
@CJAEY my comment wasn't aimed at reasonable people, cjaey.
The idea has probably already been patented
this little wing doen´t do anything to the car at speeds below 140 kph, as seen in this video. aerodynamic downforce has no effects at low speeds of such heavy roadcars. if you go faster this wing and the adaptive way of working may have an influence..
Dude wtf?! lol
lol in a parking lot
RaceMentally its autocross. its always in a parking lot.
WELL, THAT WAS PRETTY USELESS
sorry mate but you havnt got a clue lol
Or you could ask people who know a bit about the subject, just as lovevtec asked me. They might be ignorant but you're being arrogant !
lol going that slow it's not going to produce hardly anything and I'm sure at speed that would probably just fall apart like the cheap piece of shit it is
