F1 Hybrid Era Seamless Gearbox Pt2

It's been a lot of CAD design and 3D printing, but I'm finally doing an initial test assembly of the F1 seamless gearbox.

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

[@tacomanfullauto5746]

Great stuff! Awesome engineering.

[@IndeterminateDesign]

Thank you so much. It’s been a lot of fun.

[@bytesandbikes]

What an amazing project!

[@mmedEd]

Thank you for making awesome content.

[@IndeterminateDesign]

Glad you enjoy it!

What is interesting is Gordon Murray has been talkings about the Xtrac Instantaneous Gear Shift IGS which shifts and preselects virtually instantly. Honda published a paper detailing the technology of 2 generations of instant gear shift boxes. There was virtually no torque interruption between shifts. So this tech is coming soon to a road car. Withcraft. Man you should work for a leading F1 team or these gearbox manufacturers.

[@IndeterminateDesign]

Yeah it’s pretty awesome. I really thought the IGS technology would be in the latest generation boxes but I’m sure cost caps and weight came into play. I’d love to try to design one of those gearboxes.

[@Firashelou]

Man great job ! You should be hired by f1 !

[@IndeterminateDesign]

Thanks. I would love a job on an F1 team so I could get to learn all their secrets 😄

[@Firashelou]

@@IndeterminateDesign exactly me too ! I have made up many conclusions from studying how to build a single seater and from researching their technical videos and pictures for my phoenix f1 project rc but i would love to learn the exact secrets !

[@tvathome562]

Wow that's some labour of love, what printer are you using?

[@IndeterminateDesign]

Thanks! I’m using a heavily modified Ender 3 and I think I’ve hopefully found all its weak points by now.

[@litarea]

@@IndeterminateDesign If you're ever looking for video ideas, one about your printer would be interesting imo

[@Brian-ks6kf]

@@litarea That’s a great idea. I’ve actually gotten a lot of requests about this and I’ve learned a lot about what I would and wouldn’t do again.

[@mompatimase167]

Be nice if you could also share ideas on how the gearbox would be married to the tranny and innovations there around torque vectoring, smart traction control and the MGU-K.

[@IndeterminateDesign]

I wish I had more information to share on that. I have some pictures but I don’t have any real details or scale around the input shaft and MGUK.

[@TheBreaded]

Very nice! Will you be uploading this to your github once you finish the design? Also I know it's a bit of a basic question, but what is that filament you're using for the input cover?

[@IndeterminateDesign]

Thanks! I’m working on getting permission and I’m not sure at this point how it will be released but I’ll definitely keep everyone updated. The filament for the input cover is Esun PLA Silk. It looks really cool like machined aluminum.

[@TheBreaded]

@@IndeterminateDesign Cool, yeah I figured if you had some insider info it may play into what/how/if you could publish your designs. Keep up the good work, and thanks for the info on the PLA!

[@xzzxz6368]

nice vid. please do something with sound, it's impossible low level.. for example my normal level in windows mixer is 20, for view you video i increase it to 100, and this still not enough.

[@IndeterminateDesign]

Thanks for the info. I’ll check it out, I’ve been normalizing to the KZbin recommended -15db but I’ll try bumping it up a bit.

[@xzzxz6368]

@@IndeterminateDesign thank you

[@FirstLast-tx3yj]

Here at 32:40 somebody was showcasing the actual gearbox kzbin.info/www/bejne/noPOoHuNo6qAd6s I dont know the booth exactly but maybe you can figure out who they are and contact them for some info Cheers

[@IndeterminateDesign]

Yes, that’s an older Xtrac P1014. That’s what I based my first F1 gearbox model off of. They’re cool gearboxes, I believe that’s from a Marussia F1 team car.

[@FirstLast-tx3yj]

@@IndeterminateDesign its amazing that you could identify all that about it By the way I would like you to confirm somthing that has struck my mind recently. The keonegsegg Jesko light speed transmission is blow out in the media as crazy innovative but after seeing it here 22:40 kzbin.info/www/bejne/oJSqo4esnMalepI That they just adapted a typical automatic trans clutch pack to many of the gears. I knew that they were clutch packs as advertised but they seem straight out of a normal auto. And it weighs 90kg which is heavy for such a small trans what do you think?

[@jjmaxjjmax289]

Ciao e complimenti....mi piacerebbe costruirlo hai per caso i file step da inviarmi grazie

[@IndeterminateDesign]

Thank you. The entire model is available here: www.printables.com/model/379473-f1-hybrid-era-seamless-gearbox-model
