Harley's new custom comp wheels

[Harley]

I think he's completely missed the boat. Triangles?

Everyone knows that the ellipse is where it's at. Think about it....just when you needed a bit more clearance, all you need to do is give 'er a little more throttle till the wheel rotates and you gain instant axle clearance. "thumbsup"

We tested ellipses and pentagons. The problem is the gyro effect kicks in when you add more than 4.5 oz to each wheel with an ellipse. If you run anything but a triangle you begin to lose stability when on off camber situations greater than 37 degrees. It is along the same theory though.

This is the only design that will give any hope to the Rock Force Crowd. Otherwise the truck is destined to come in DEAD ASS LAST in every comp. It is plain and simple math.

I have turn most of the stuff off in the model so you can't see some of the still unreleased products.

Looks like I might have to get a Rock Force, Harley is on to something here....

 

[Offroader5]

Not sure you've done the math right Harley. Take a look at my calculations...

 

[Offroader5]

I mean...hell, even the Triangular Society members are having a hard time with it....

 

[C*H*U*D]

I say "GO HARLEY"!!! You never know until you try!!

Although they do remind me of the old Shimano Biopace Chainrings. (they died out by the way)

Triangles are stupid, c'mon, everyone knows it's-

The first one is a theory that I do not believe has been accurately proven to work on our scale and the second one is only legitimate if used with fluid filled tires.


I have used a theory that is commonly used for the design of units in reactors for extraction. It has been proven to give the maximum grip independent of the medium. They don't have time to waste when in this situation and millions of dollars has been spent to prove it. I am just using resources that were previously unavailable to the public before the Obama admin took over.

This image is really cool! I can see one motor per wheel. Front rear dig and "cutting breaks" by locking up individual motors.

Go for it! Triangular wheels or not! "thumbsup":lmao:

You all have lost your damn minds:shock::shock:

We will be using prototype mini cobalt pullers that are being designed for the new Losi Micro axles. They actually have too much power for them so we will be building them right into the upper worm gear mount of the modified Rock Force axles.

Since the Rock Force axles are worthless for almost any other reason this was the best solution.

That's one hell of an idea. 8)"thumbsup"

Wow Josh, you gave away more info than I expected...keep the input coming guys

 

[billet works]

You all have lost your damn minds:shock::shock:

Quoting Josh here "have you ever seen the triangle wheeled rig not work well? There you have it!"

Point and case.

Had to subscribe to this thread. I want to watch it very carefully. Something about this smells like a june bug.....Offorader's math is close, but it's not a fluid model, it's an aero model, and the grid Harley provided is off by exactly .037% on it's assumptions for Inner Radi while the Delta Value row makes no sense since a dependent row for Covalent Modulous is just plain missing.

 

[team3six]

I dig it and it actually makes sence. I suppose you have to have twisted mind to see how it works. Now time for my Psycho medication.:ror:

The .037 you are not seeing because air resistance has been negated due to the RPM's being below 30 rpm. With a tread depth smaller than .3" I don't see the resistance meeting the minimum K value to really be warranted in the aero formula.

Wonder what DK thinks about this new idea? :lol:
