    I think it would be really cool to see an fpv driving simulator for this. Hook the controls up to a steering wheel, gearshift, and pedals and then have a live feed so its like you're actually driving.

    Hi JohnnyQ90.- Two thoughts: Wouldn't it be better to use a friction (and heat) resistant material for the clutch cone such as the one used in brake pads or clutch discs? Second, While engaging the clutch, you are applying axial thrust to the engine crankshaft.- Can the crankshaft bearings manage this..?? Regards, have a nice day...

    • @BeezyKing99
      @BeezyKing99 Год назад +43

      Nylon (or any random plastic) cones are ok.
      The power output is minimal and thge contact area is wide.
      If the torque to be transmitted will ever exceed the clutch "rating", it's simply a matter of making a new bigger/wider/longer one.
      Not to mention that a new cone will take a very short time to make (the shape is simple enough and the material easily adapts in the case of a mismatched angle).
      Regarding the axial load on the clutch, as Carlos Schagun noted, it's simply a matter of using a thrust bearing on the bearing support...
      However, even shitty ball/roller bearing can take some axial load, and I doubt that servo is pushing with such force.

    I would suggest changing the servo positioning such that the servo horn is almost parallel with the linkage it is pulling on at "full clutch lock". This will give you greater precision for slipping the clutch, more pressure that the servo can actually put into the clutch, and also put less strain on the servo when holding the clutch engaged.
    Or implement it like most full size cars, where the clutch springs pull it tight, and the input (clutch pedal) disengages it.

  • @jansvasta2146
    @jansvasta2146 Год назад +58

    Beautiful, your engineering skills are admirable! Just one thought, there must be lots of axial force on the bushing and male cone of the clutch, maybe it's not an issue, but I can see how a little thrust bearing in there could help :)

    • @LesNewell
      @LesNewell Год назад +6

      Cone clutches don't need much force to work. Delrin is a pretty good bearing material so I don't expect he will have much trouble there. At a guess the most likely problem will be the Delrin melting where it meets the female taper.

    Awesome man! Love your content. I’m a auto tech. The only thing I could recommend is to make the clutch self engaging. That way it doesn’t put extra load on the engine from the friction of the clutch fork bushing when you trying to draw power of the engine. You could have a it spring loaded and relaxes the spring tension with a clutch fork to let it free wheel. Like they do on normal manual transmission. I think the extra friction is hurting the performance greatly.

    I'd make the gearbox and the rear diff one unit. You have a CNC, cutting the two gears required to do this would be easy for you. You could also have a transfer case from that diff to the front if you want 4WD, but honestly, 4WD is kinda overrated in my opinion on RC stuff (when you're not offroading as a type).
    That should give you a 50/50 weight distribution easily if the battery/fuel and electronics live in the center. You can also try making a torque tube type construction for it, which then removes the need for a bottom plate, which in turn makes the car much lighter. I've never done it myself, but i've seen one third scale RCs with it.
    Also, for the clutch, look up "OEM 121K42230" or "121K38310" and dive into the world of those types of clutches. Ditch the RC types, because they'll never be as good as a miniaturization from car to RC car, whereas these clutches have been in the making for over 40 years and have various sizes and power couples. They're also reasonably cheap these days with most manufacturers looking to make things as cheap as possible, thus ditching using clutches in their products in favor of other methods of coupling, thus relegating these as spare parts.
    I've been using such clutches for RC for quite a while now and they're bulletproof. I've never changed the (already used, recuperated from a 1990's Xerox machine) clutch i have adapted for my early 2000's RC car, still up and running and i'm not even using it at its full power potential (12v) rather at half of it, because it mimics real clutch behavior that way.

    You could use channel mixing on the remote to apply the clutch smoothly for the first few percent of your throttle throw. The dial would still allow you to actuate it manually if you wanted to do full throttle launches or anything like that. It would also make it so it will automatically disengage the clutch when you brake so you don't kill the engine.
    Many people have mentioned the wear on the engine's crankshaft since it likely isn't built to handle the axial thrust from a clutch. Depending on how durable you want it to be, it may be necessary to fabricate some form of external thrust bearing or a clutch that acuates from both sides to eliminate the thrust.

    Interesting use case for what appears to be UHMD in a friction application. Normally that is used to reduce friction, if that is in fact UHMD. That set up is also creating a little more load for that little engine. Only mentioned that since you mentioned the 4WD was working the motor hard. All those extra rotating friction points are also adding slight loads that will eventually add up. Still a great build, not knocking it at all, keep up the good work.

    I think your best bet is going to be light weight steel bell housing and a steel cone with a machined down brake pad to fit either around the inside of the bell or outside of the cone for better engagement.
