Hey are you watching Two Stroke Stuffing’s channel? He’s making a run at Bonneville this year too. Interesting power plant you should definitely get some footage of his run. Good luck maniac
Fun fact. - People think Matt reuses the same still image of the Honda S600 for the outro, but In reality he go to the car and re-records it each week to show his fans exactly how much progress he's made with it in the last 7 days. :D
The fact you could say "or Boeing: FAIL" without looking around for their hitman was the best deadpan I've seen in quite a while! All Hail the Algorithm!
Thanks for making me feel less alone in earthing a MIG welder only through the metal plating on a rare earth magnet, erm, once. I say once as you can't do it twice, at least not without another magnet...
With my old Racecars, I’d make a part, set it aside, make another one, set it aside, and just keep doing that until I couldn’t make it any better anymore. This doesn’t work well for expensive things, and many times it got limited to two or three times, but it did make things better, almost as good as if I had paid a pro to do it and sometimes it even came through cheaper than the pro lol
For the safety pin holes for the parachute, you could design a spring powered flap to cover/fill the hole when the pin is removed. Just a fun extra project
2024 SCTA rule book. pg 41 "All non manual parachute release systems must also have a redundant, manual release as a back-up..." I hope to see you in Tech at Bonneville. And hear you ran well. Keep up the good work, if it was easy, everybody would be doing it.
I’m not an expert by any means, but if I were designing the parachute cable release system, it would be such that the cable holds it shut not pulls it open; that way if the cable fails the parachute immediately comes out instead of not at all
Friction drag is why all our cars never got futuristic needle point noses. Same for non supersonic aircraft. It is just a bunch of superfluous surface area for air to cling to, most surfaces have stagnant air stuck to them. Also why wind speed on earth jumps up with any altitude. A wind turbine on your roof is one thing, but 100 feet above it is another animal completely.
8:17 - are these figures backwards? The say the cross sectional area of the mild steel is .375, but you give it 150ksi tensile strength, and then say the bolts are 3 times stronger than the mild steel. Adjusting for what I think it should be, it's 11,250 lbs on the mild steel and 12,690 lbs on the bolts. Still 24,000 pounds, but perhaps this is the Boeing way of good enough, and not the SpaceX way. 😁But NASA would probably also look at the beam bending forces of the mild steel clip to make sure it doesn't straighten out the first time you pull a chute!
My only comment from one engineer to another, is your bottom hook would probably not fail in shear, it would deform and flatten out allowing it to unhook from the bottom. I only know because who I work for tried to get extra capacity out of anchor bolts in concrete by making them a J shape. They pulled right out mostly at the same as if they were straight, essentially no additional capacity and while we still have hundreds of them installed, we ignore anything the J was supposed to add. Food for thought.
Hey Matt as a climber that nylon webbing is wayyyy strong, like several tens of kilonewtons strong, I think inserting more webbing inside of the slings you made will prevent the strands of nylon from doing their thing and it might hurt your tensile strength
Really try to get it happening before age robs you of something you may not notice absent? I have forgotten in my old age. Are we going for 300 MPH or, more? Thank you for the videos.
I love how indirect you are sometimes when bitch slapping people before they can even complain!!! (The sheer strength portion). Love it all and can't wait to see her back on the flats!
Yes, carbon fiber does conduct electricity: I discovered this after an angle grinder, a drill, & a TIG welder, decided they did not like carbon dust. Blow out your equipment regularly when using carbon, & save yourself the cost of replacing tools!- ; Just like I didn't.🤓😎
I would be a little bit nervous using a system that requires electronics to work, pneumatics to work, and a cable to work, for my very critical safety device, Especially since the parachutes have redundancy, but do the pneumatic and electrical systems have redundancy? If you have a dead battery, or a leak in your pneumatic system, does that potentially mean no parachutes? Plus the admittedly very unlikely but still possible situation where somebody doesn't connect the quick connect on the tail. I know unlikely, but super unlikely stuff like that is how really bad things happen. I would want to be pulling directly on the cable that releases the chute and if I see the cable there is (as much as physically possible) very little possibility that the cable that I'm looking at is not attached to the parachute. Probably a bit of paranoia in my personality showing through, I'm the kind of guy that is absent minded so I absolutely refuse to ever leave my keys in my car because I'll eventually lock my keys in my car. It's a very nice slick system, but just me personally I'd be nervous. Absolute minimum possibility that an absent minded person (probably me) or minor problem could affect my critical safety device.
how hard or complex would it be to add a secondary brake system that acts to retard the motor (like a jake brake)? obviously friction brakes would become molten. maybe even magnetic brakes? although magnetic brakes would also generate massive heat. just seems like you should have redundancy for braking
i love it when Matt casually pulls out the real real math to shut up all the youtube chair engineers screaming about safety and "thats not strong enough!!!" once in a while. Great to see you working on the landspeed car again i def still eyeing that viper in the background though. 👍
It really is. Doing something right the first time can ultimately be a negative if you don't actually understand why you succeeded. Sometimes it's just dumb luck, and you don't want life or limb depending on dumb luck.
You gotta run out of wrong ways to do it before You can call what You do "technology". Before that, it's just luck. And we all know how fast You can run out of that.
You so overestimate my ability to learn and explore hitherto unknown dimensions of failure on revision mark ii. It's not that I'm incapable of learning/doing better. I just have more opportunities for something to catastrophically fail. Better for all parties if the fates just rubber stamp it with a gimme.
Your ability to learn from your failures depends on your ability to gather information from your failures. That means adequate recording instruments and test parameters. The best thing you can get out of a failure without either of those things is that you can potentially clear up a lot of unknown unknowns and the questions that you didn't know you needed to ask.
The way the tail section slots in is really nice. And the superstructure for the solenoids was genius move. So clean. Looks like you took notes on “things that sucked” and iterating through them methodically.
For a quick easy exhaust disconnect, look at the Tri Clamp fittings from the dairy industry. Easy to do, easy to safety wire, and they come in stainless.
Since u dont want to fully sticker bomb the car, i think it would look kinda cool to have the driver canopy and surrounding area mirror the helmet of ur channel icon, it always reminds me of it.
Soooo, let me get this straight… Do everything wrong on the first try. ✅ Create a RUclips channel where nothing is right on the first try. ✅ Be just as super cool as Super Fast Matt. ❌ I guess I’ll try again. ✌🏻

Did you really just invent a hood release mechanism that is in every car since 1950 and put it on the back?
You did.

Instead of using a spacer in the parachute tube with the smaller chute, fill up the void with glitter.

In the pre NASA days my grandfather worked out at Cape Canaveral. They used to do that second method a LOT. I think he liked when things blew up
12:37 "If you want something done right, do it wrong first" absolutely beautiful quote, I need that on a t-shirt immediately.
For the cheeky algorithm: I tried to bribe it, but then it txted: what do you think I am, a supreme court justice?

That quick-disconnect for the chute cables is damn clever, would love to see more of that as it gets finalized.
You've clearly sorted it but for those release mechanism they are exactly the same as car rear seat catches.
At first you don’t succeed, keep trying until it looks like you did succeed. Certified good enough!
A Roundtangle! Pure Genius!
another great one!!

"...nads' I had a Rambling Syd Rumpo moment there; luckily he's on RUclips.
As a man that owns two 20 year old Mazdas I'm here to see how you're going to deal with the rust.
Your comparison of mantra's of failure is amazing, T-Shirt time?
Love the philosophy
That latching mechanism is incredibly satisfying. Carbon fiber burning is incredibly unsatisfying. All hail the algorithm.
The definition of taking action vs being in motion. Better to do it twice and learn than spend twice as long planning and not doing anything.
Trying hard to dredge up a Lost "tail section survivors" reference.

I see you've gone with the serrated edges on the tail, is this to create vortices as the air moves past the end of the body?
exactly
Can't think of a good enough compliment so I'm just gonna say I'm here to drive engagement stats. Woohoo!
Kicking the algorithm in the 'nads for you.
This one time, at band clamp
Maybe I've missed something.. But did the EV Jag ever get finished?
