My hydraulic suspension bit
 

here are some pics of my tri cell, dual pcb, motor driven hydraulic suspension bit. I also have some video how can ipost that?
ok correction video posted below!!!

:eek: yeah!! post vids of that thing! wow.. hydraulix! :D

holy ........ i need vids to get off on lol j/k

Sick! Can you adjust the height to optimum race level, or is it just an up and down thing? And how fast is it considering the extra weight, but you do have two cells, but they are going to two seperate boards. Oh yeah, what about charging duties? And what's the meaning of life? That ought to keep you busy for a while!:D

Can you explain what you've done?

Congrats BTW. You're the first person I've seen pull it off. You really should get some kind of reward. If you have the video on your PC, I'm sure someone here will have a place for you to upload it. I'd really love to see it.

doesnt look like its "pimped" just looks like a performence thing.. thats dumb i want to see it bouncing around.. :o

Hey man, I love that thing but I would like some explaination too about how you did this mod as well as how it works.

Thanks - d00kie

BTW I'm writing a ride height adjustment article and I would really like to include yours in :D.

ok the car is still fast its got a 2.2 motor running off of the laymans tri cell mod with another board running parrelel to the original board straight from the battery terminals . first i modified the knuckles (check the pic) then the lift works off of a 1.0 motor.
I have one controller working the regular car functions and another working the suspension lift.
I am now working on a steering coil lift for the rear end and intergrting the two controlers into one. thanks for the compliments.
you guys will love the video where can i up load it?
and takumi , how would you like me to show the car bouncing with still photos? who's dumb now?

Ok, try uploading the images here;

Maximum 15 minutes total.

Hey could you explain how it works? I'm kinda confused since you only revealed what you did. My brain frying up trying to figure the stuff up.

BTW: you could take a small clip of it going up and down and turn it into an animated GIF file, which is a picture.

looks to me what he did was use another motor to power a custom suspension arm up or down, depending on whether he wants it to be raised or lowered. i.e. when the arm is down, the knucles are forced down, making it raised, and vice versa.

right midget , the second motor pulls a string across the top of the second pcb down a hole in the front cover back up and pulls that custom arm down. more later

let me help you out there.

here's his vid

btw, very nice, LOVE it! got any bodies to put on?

Nice org. mod. This could be done with a single PCB from a Wild Char-G. Or a modded booster PCB to enable the extra channel. Just an observation.

thanks midget! howd you do that?
anyway yeah the only body i have that fits so far is an accord wagon

thanks tberius i thought of the wild charg also but i plan on using the steering function off the second board to work the rear lift.

its simple. All you gotta do is click http://, put what you want it to say, and then paste/type your web address in it.


i deserve a reward......


**edit** p.s. i thought I'd help ya out, newbie (or close enough) lol

Great job! Just wait until payaso sees this lol....

thanks whos payaso? im kind of new.

the pimp of all pimps

man I had that same idea for so long, just didnt have the knowledge or materials to do it, nice job

that was a very bad description of payaso. He's a moderator here, and well, he IS a pimp.

Alright, this should go into the Bit Science forum!!!

i dont wanna to be an a$$ but, u should rename this thread to adjustable ride height or something. Hydraulics are very different compared to what you created. (miss-leading)

BTW NICE JOB!!:D

very nice job... maybe the next step would be to have it hold w/o having to press the button... and the next step, the back!!

Namuna edit: The nasty comments here were removed...pacman gave an opinion. Attacking or calling someone names in retort will NOT be tolerated.

HOED!!!!!! haha, i couldn't resist, sorry lol

I'm the pimp on these great boards and that's one sweet mod you got there. Congrats..Now you need a pimpin Gloria body on that sled to make it off the fer shizzle hizzle dizzle...lol great job.

Check out some of my pimped out cars in my sig..


silla

thanks payaso, i saw a boss hog caddy from the dukes of hazard that may be the body that i use.
it came in a pack of 4 mini plastic models in toys r us im gonna check it out today.

told you so( not as if you were contradicting me though)


P.S.- Payaso: Nice rides/track, man!

Namuna edit: Nasty comments removed.

DUDE!!!!SWEET!!!!

That is both funny a heck and cool!

it is a lil fat though!:eek: :eek:

thanks link a little fat??
pacman i dont want to get into it with you but how do YOU think turbo works?

we all gotta chillax here... turbo, as far as i know, takes the pressure from the exhaust system to ram more air into the engine, thus higher compression, and more oxygen combustion... im tired, so whoever wants to rag on this, just drop me a note and i'll go dig up my science fair project :D

ok turbo basically works by directing exhaust so that it spins a wheel which then turns another wheel that forces more air into the engine plain and simple

yeah.. the wheel thingy... **yawn**.... :D

thats pretty cool but i dont see why it would be any better than springs.

It's better because it adds weight, and lets you play with the ride height using your remote.

And you can get the two wheel bouncing action going on!
--
If this Bit's a rocking, don't come a knocking. :D

So this whole mod is to bounce the front of the car up and down so you can PRETEND to have hydraulics????

To each his own I guess.
If that floats your boats, then congrats!


And to think, I've been wasting all my time making my car go faster and perform better!

:confused:

what do you think people put hydraulics on cars for? speed?
not all mods are for speed
you have been wasting your time.
is your black motor clip for speed or is it for performance?
