...

  • Front plane to Hip Node variable Discussion

    • Airfoil shape, 5g Front impact considerations, solar array area optimization

Suspension (tick)

...

  • FSU & RSU Space claimed, starting nodal for linkage skeleton diagram

Steering

  • Pending on Nodal, may relocate driver

Brakes

...

  • Front Wall/ Floor monuted, looking into custom pedal complexity

Exteriors

  • Flat sides vs tear drop top view

  • Canopy width → dependent to rollcage width

  • Canopy Length → ideal 6x Canopy Height, Canopy Height = (Hip-to-head)cos25 - Aerobody Height + Clearance

  • Playing around with aerobody width to enable 6m^2 of array area

Battery

...

  • angle of attack? nose compartment free game

  • Canopy elongation for better aero performance (provide ref.)

  • Main design constraint for space is solar area & tail cantilever

Battery

  • Referencing MS15 enclosure dimensions

  • refer to rivian concept

...

  • 100% double wishbone

  • Current suspension dimensions are in line with jens referral

  • Created parametric hardpoint frame

    • Potential to reinvest into upside down trapezoid hardpoint config

  • RSU no architectural changes expect maybe a bellcrank, pending

    • Action Item: Proper dimensions for next space claim

Steering

  • Due to decision to go ackerman & looking into moving the driver forward, the steering linkage is to be above FSU

  • Rough nodal to be devised for next space claim to accurately determine allocated volume

  • Over-exaggeration of tire angles to prevent interference

...

  • Motor controller Space Claim

    • Requires airflow, 100% waterproof (not in the path of any water ingress or perfectly sealed), less then 3ft from motor, accessible when roof is up

  • parking brake opposite side of motor

  • Rear suspension: very similar to MS15

Steering

  • targeting ackerman steering, therefore volume in front of the upright is free game
