Reddit and experts doesn't belong together.

What your doing is really amazing! I have to laugh out loud when I hear these sidewalk critics writing TEN page critics of your work. Why don't "they" put in the time to do something intellectually constructive as you have done?

When I designed my version of torque vectoring model for my Master Degree I have used a mybrid between Akerman and Pithagoras derived equations :) my colleagues laught about the Idea but that worked smooth

I'm sorry to be that guy, but I am just curious of how much money would it take to make one adapted to a 2-stroke 100cc engine. Or, if it is possible to get the 3D print files. Thank you very much, I hope you have a wonderful day! Edit: I have a 100cc motorcycle that use sequential gear, no clutch lever. I'm thinking of building a gokart with the engine from my motorcycle using this gearbox, or, just a 1000cc 3 cylinder engine. Again, thank you very much!

Control valves *should* have bypass when in "off" position. Extended periods of "off" while the pump is running will cause the working fluid to overheat.

Nothing, but *nothing* is incomoressible. End of!

Good idea, I think you would have more success with a piston style pump driven by a stepper motor, think leadscrew on a resin printer, it would be capable of generating serious amounts of force.

Well done, man ! I love it. Thanks for sharing. You might find this MotoGP seamless gearbox interesting. It does not have shifter forks and if I recall, does not require a torque cut. Evidently, this is a 2013 Honda patent design. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Znito3eJbZKhmKcsi=fbHxaQpVxoeDGC9E

what about a FDM surine like pump? so having one of that big suringes actuated by a motor an a theated rod with a nut, that will generete positive/negative pressure fluid to actuate the sistem.

All gear's including the dog clutch all sit on a fine spine shaft then it's a full syncro box.

Hello ! I have no knowledge about hydrolics or robotics. But when I see the system I don't understand the advantages of going for hydrolics instead of electric actuator. As the power source is an electric motor, I think that the hydrolics are just a inefficient gearbox. What am I missing ?

12:20 Subbed for engine noise simulation

“Reverse is very rarely used in F1” Well, if you’re allowed 6 gearboxes for the season, I’d guess that means you can reverse no more than 6 times for the entire season. They don’t seem to like being used twice, from what little we see of drivers attempting to use reverse.

Wow! Thank the algorithm. One more subscriber.

Have you had a look at the 'Zero-shift' gearbox?

Are you planning on taking it further? Im really excited for it! Would be awesome to actually get a hold of rc hydraulics without giving an arm and a leg!

I would maybe try using mineral oil as hydraulic fluid.

Great video . I used to machine and maintain hydraulic pumps professionally, this looks like a professionally made system . On another note fdm can manage parts like this , however there will be fitment and size limitation .( Gotta be large enough so that part tolarances are within the available tokerance of the printer ) i gotta get my hands on an resen printer.

Micro hydraulics seem like an idea with high potential, but i always got the feeling you had to "know a guy." I am really surprised that robotics haven't used more of it with how easy ratios are with piston vs pump size. This seems way more accessible imo, thanks.

Oil galleries not galleys :-)

Fascinating project. Great learning experience on number of levels. The ability to reduce parts, particularly joints is amazing.

I know it's not F1 compliant, but Toyota has a hybrid CVT that only uses gears, no belts. Hard to beat that for shift time when it's seamless.

Incredible show of what can be done. You've inspired me for sure.

As someone who is continuously fascinated by F1 tech this was so enlightening

Awesome build.

Rely nice project. Can you indicate the patent referenced at 3:02, and maybe other relevant patents?

likely losing some pressure in long plastic hoses

Cool project! The 3D models make the parts seem so much bigger than they are in reality, at least to me lol. I really like your modeling philosophy of building the flow paths first and then subtracting them from the solid manifold. Well done!

Mini hydraulics parts for convertible cars are actually pretty cheap, also mini pneumatic cylinders work for hydraulics. Pretty cool though especially for a part that isn't something you can get off the shelf.

Great project! At some time I was going to try something like this too. Similarly, my idea would be to 3d print the channels and blocks but size the prints so they could be contained in stock profile metal sections. Doing this might help increase the working psi as the pressures could be transmitted from the fluid, through the print to the outer metal casing. Also, research might be needed into which hydraulic fluids can be used which won't erode the 3d print materials. Simple veg/sunflower oil might be all that is needed. My idea was to incorporate 3d printed channels for a hydraulic spool for controls and a hydraulic 360` rotating turntable junction such as used on an excavator but contained in stock metal sections.

In addition to tolerances that floating side plates address, those standard herringbone gear shapes will allow a leakage path that effectively joins suction to pressure. If you study commercially available helical gear pumps, you will observe that much like on a screw compressor the geometries are designed with care to minimise the leakage path at the meshing point.

What type of shaft seal did you use going from your gear pump to the motor? All the little ones i can find on mcmaster dont seem to hold much pressure

Would you consider doing a video dedicated to the breaking system. I would like to know more about how you stop and ABS that you have designed. You make awesome videos, and I love the projects. Keep up the great work

I would have thought a radial piston pump would work best for 3D prints as the o-ring gives a lot of leeway. I would probably cheat and use a metal cylinder 😂. It does add a lot more valves, though.

I have find that oil pumps from motorcycle engine works great as a hydraulics pump.

with tesla turbine as pump, you can also 3d print the pump, even simpler better than the two gears you use as the pump now, well two interleaved tesla turbine discs stacks act like the gear pump, direct replacement

Ackshually

They make mini hydraulic stuff for remote control excavators. It's neat that you built your own, but I thought this was already a solved problem.

what do you think about using magnetic gearbox to transmit motion to the 3d printed pump through the housing? (one set of magnets on the gear or abit distanced through shaft disk, and other set outside of housing, each next magnet changing polarity for adequate repell forces)

Nice! What was epoxy did you use to seal things together? The brass tube into that one block. ty!

This is so cool! i had no idea you can print crystal clear parts like that tank. thanks!

Closely guarded secrets my ass - how many ways are there to connect a few gears together?

You need a pivot for your cylinder, you're currently binding it with side load

Amazing

Wow that is amazing dude I’m also still learning this stuff I’d love to learn more about your designs Really appreciate your work

If you sweep the rear suspension forward on the ib pickups you can create a larger diffuser. Also take a look at the tenth technology predator for some extra inspiration if you have not seen it already. Love the channel

I too was referred here by Driver 61. Very detailed, but easy to follow along.

I would love to have the ability to design an attachment for a 100mm outlet flexible host to direct the air to the outside of my workshop. Cheers. Mike Irish

Love it! What method or sensor did you use to measure the torque changes?
