Am I missing something or pulling the crankshaft before screwing in the flywheel nut doesnt make any sense? The nut pulls it all the way out when locked..Also, shouldn't that nut being closed with a torque wrench with a specific torque?
@tytessmann58423 жыл бұрын
The design of a collet makes it so that it can bind wherever it is, it won't necessarily pull the crankshaft out. There probably would be a specific torque setting that would be perfect, but I don't know of anyone that has come up with that number, plus carrying a torque wrench to a race seems a little bit unnecessary.

@@tytessmann5842 Clear. I can't really say a lot regarding RC cars (specifically engines in this case) but from my professional racing background I may expect that tightening torque to be a pretty important detail in the assembly (think about the bearing also), and temperature has to be taken in account. I think having a chat with engines manufacturers and tuners about it may open some good points. Btw thank you for your feedback!

Can i get a link to your 3d printed flywheel wrench I'd really be interested in printing it, thx

The first one we drew and printed didn't last very well, so we will be working on it to make it more durable.

How come you don’t use a vented bell ? I’ve just heard other people say that vented bells are better cause they let all the alloy/carbon dust out of the surface that the shoes engage on.
@tytessmann58423 жыл бұрын
Depending on the track conditions I sometimes do use the vented bell, but where there is a track surface that has a lot of small rocks, my concern is that a rock can get into the vented bell and lock something up.

When the clutch is engaged the bearings aren't spining🤔explain iam lost
@JeffEmbracedDC3 жыл бұрын
Those bearings are (mostly) only used at idle speeds. At idle, when the car is standing still, the clutch is disengaged. The engine rpm hovers around 1,800 while the clutch bell doesn't spin at all (it's at 0 rpm). Those two bearings (the clutch bearings) sit between the clutch bell and the engine shaft. They allow the engine shaft to spin freely within the clutch bell. The outside bearing race contacts the clutch bell while the inside race contacts the engine shaft. Once the engine revs up, the clutch shoes expand and make contact inside of the clutch bell. The friction causes the clutch bell to start rotating, which makes the car start moving. As speed continues increasing, the shoes expand against the clutch bell more, causing more friction, and more direct engagement. Eventually, when the clutch is fully engaged and the clutch bell is moving at the same speed. Now, since those two surfaces are rotating at the same speed, the inside race and outside race rotate together simultaneously. So basically, when the clutch is engaged, both of the bearing races spin - but they rotate together synchronously - so the bearing isn't actually doing any work. Hope that makes sense.

@mattpaulin46913 жыл бұрын
Not entirely true. The largest diameter of the inner bearing race is smaller than the smallest diameter of the outer race. So even when the clutch is fully engaged the is a rotational difference that will cause the ball bearings to rotate but not revolve around tje crank. This causes heat. Similarly the same happens when using plastic side seals. The only bearing thrust will be caused from a less than perfect square contact angle between the center spur gear and clutch bell teeth.
