      Mate you got called out for using a term you don't understand and yet dump this salt. Hilarious.
      Rivian would like a word. They literally already do motor per wheel with individual control. Tesla would like a word. They already do motor per axle, except in the plaid, semi and cybertruck rears which do motor per wheel.
      Mercedes would like a word. VW would like a word. Lordstown would like a word. I can continue.
      But they don't use "AI". This is a problem solvable entirely with regular human defined algorithms, no ML/AI required.
      There's also good reasons you don't see motor per wheel done more. It increases cost and complexity. And for the DIY'er the parts available to do it are extremely limited, the only major hobbyist accessible hub motors if taking the lordstown approach would require a bunch of custom machining (not just welding) to mount to a Polaris, would require 4 times as much control electronics and to round it off, have less combined performance than the 1 motor they already have

    This is an amazing build. The design is awesome - from the lighting to the roll cage to the drive unit. The chain makes me nervous though, it's the weakest link, if you will. It just goes to show how powerful the drive unit is when everything else around it breaks. The performance is startling, and the battery life very impressive. I can see some manufacturers casting an envious eye in your direction.

    • @zebraloverbridget
      @zebraloverbridget Год назад +4

      They could just add in an extra storage area dedicated to keeping an extra chain and whatever else is needed to get it back on. Although, there may be improvements to the system that could be made to help reduce the chain breaking which would be the better solution

      @@zebraloverbridget The chain seems like a good point of failure. Like a fuse; sacrificing itself to save the rest of the drivetrain. A spare chain, a link breaker, and a wrench to tighten the idler pulley wouldn't take up much space at all (whether in the vehicle itself or in the trailer).

    • @adamfabing8250

    I understand the motor, battery packs etc are expensive but people spend crazy amounts on there off road toys. They have to worry about damage to the cooling system, clutch, gearbox, engine etc. There is way less to go wrong on that ev and has instant tourqe. For a first build of something that you have limited experience and taking it out with experienced off roaders, you done well and more than proved how well an electric off road vehicle can do. And I'm not a EV fan at all, but I have to respect what you have done.

      just because its an EV doesnt mean you dont have to worry about the stresses youre putting the motor and gears through, same with battery and cooling system if its in the summer. idk what he proved cuz we just watched an axle obliterate itself from the "instant torque" and alot of resistance which will cause motor stress. i mean that motor sounded like it was dying when the fat guy sat in it

    Considering what failed in the drive train it was pretty impressive how well it took to that trail. Well now you know a few things that are under performing. The drive chain in its current form is not cutting it. The parts of the drive train that broke definitely can be improved upon. The steering rack I don't know what happened too. Well we were told it got bent but not how or why. But it could probably stand to be beefed up some. Other than that it seemed to perform mostly as intended.
    How did the suspension work out? What I saw it looked like it could do with a bit softer springs to help articulation in really rough terrain, but that's just what I believe I saw. It's also a trade off. Do you want max articulation in terrain at low speeds or are you looking for performance at higher speeds and more forgiving terrain or even roads? It's the same as with air pressure in the tires. Low pressure give a large contact patch that can deform around and grip rough surfaces well, but it get "swampy" and unstable at speed on a road. Pressure in the tires can be easily changed but springs in the suspension is a bit harder to change at will. It can be done but costs a pretty penny and weighs a bit more.
    As for the design, I both love and hate it. It looks eye catching and seems to work, but at the same time the high "wings" is un-necesary design that makes this purely a toy machine. If you get the buggs out it could be more than a toy. Even the doors actually works pretty well, though they probably shouldn't be a thing if it was to be more than a toy.
    Having weighed things up I think the design is mostly there. This IS a toy, so looking like something from a batman film that got cut out and left on the cutting room floor is OK.

      The first time I witnessed a LiPo powered Brushless Traxxas Rustler back in 2007. My mind was blown and I said that day 'OK then; all cars will be going electric the instant they scale this up'.
      It has taken awhile to get here but we are at tipping point. EV production is accelerating quickly at this point which is only possible when it's possible.
      I'm not in need of a car payment so I'll stick to my RCs for a bit longer. My daughter is almost 7 and has about outgrown her 1/16 Summit and wants to always drive my 1/16 Brushless Revo 'because it's funner'. She is probably going to be getting a Stampede soon. Then I can break my full size Revo out and not worry about killing hers 🤣

  • @Fix_It_Again_Tony
    @Fix_It_Again_Tony Год назад

    Awesome build overall! Looks like it could use a low range gear for crawling, or maybe it needs a little bit of tuning on the throttle mapping to make the first 10% or so less sensitive. Finding a way to mount at least some of the batteries lower would also help make it more stable. You said 30S 4P, so if you could split that pack up and move some of the sections of the pack that are in parallel down lower that would help lower the center of gravity.
    Besides that it just needs to aftermarket drive train parts to help stand up to the torque, no surprise there. A lower gear ratio for crawling may actually help here. Slower is more controlled so while lowering the ratio will multiply the torque, applying the torque in a more controlled way reduces shock loads you get from sending it over rough terrain. I guess with the chain drive you could use different sprocket combinations, but a transfer case with a low range would be sweet.

    If you switched the throttle mapping you can walk that up the side of the mountain. A hand control might be a little easier or even a thumb button that only gives it 5% or 7% of the throttle. It is hard to make your foot move a small precise amount, but a little slower with the go pedal will stop eating your parts.

    you guys need a knob (or really just a switch) you can turn on the dash to turn on "low range" which slows down the motor considerably for rock crawling, you literally have the perfect vehicle for this but it just needs some programming adjustments, have hoodie, will volunteer
    remember, for rock crawling (and off-roading in general) go slow as possible, fast as necessary
    also never stick your thumbs in the steering wheel like at 22:13, that's how you break a thumb
