From the ground up: Aerodynamics Part III

[@rickyd75]

Nice Job Max. Thanks for the content. All my tracks are closed due to Covid, and these video's are a nice way to keep the focus on racing. You should do a video on camber gain when you have a chance.

I appreciate the intense focus on the subject of aerodynamics and that you include many of your pet peeves when speaking about various aspects of RC setups. One thing that I would like to hear a perspective on involves torque-twist and the way it affects the handling of most modern 4wd RC vehicles that are shaft-driven and powered by a motor or engine that is longitudinally mounted. For all of the finer adjustments to be made in RC, how has this wild, left to right or right to left pitching action while throttling the vehicle never stood out as a performance disadvantage?

This is actually an interesting topic. Touring cars clearly all saw this disadvantage as they have moved away. Sadly I don't see that the nitro cars will ever be able to be belt driven due to durability issues. So I believe most people see and understand the disadvantage but are just stuck with the driveshafts due to a lack of a better option.

how does holes at the back of the wing affect the car?

Brain wave, can you contoure the underneath of the chassis, make a the chassis a wing add a diffuser milled into the bottom

This is exactly one of the things I've been looking into. The packaging of everything inside the body would first have to become a bit more tight to make this happen.
