Slim 2
 
Can anyone tell me anything about the Slim 2 ?

any spy shots Jimmy ?

I agreed to not show anything too revealing, this and the slim4 are really interesting projects and I can't wait to get my oOple hands on them for some reviewage.

Rob there are some photos of the two Slim2 prototypes on Racechat ;).

Rob Fitzgerald 14-09-2006 02:18 PM

LOL

Nudey pics ?

I think I might know where now ...

<scuttles off>

Is the slim2 on a backburner at the moment with the Slim4 taking centre stage ? or are you developing both at the moment ?

BenG 14-09-2006 02:32 PM

Call me stupid and slap my knackers! I can't find the pics anywhere - got a link to them?:)

The slim2 is a long term project like the Slim4, which has been in development for over 1 year, so the slim2 is at a early stage ;)

Photos of the two current Slim2's with diffrent cell layouts, please note that these are the 1st builds off autocad, so i would guess once i have decided which cell layout to go with, they would change from these photos. But early days yet.

thats very good;) Excellent quality, although that spur gear has an output stuck out, will that be removed?

Northy 20-09-2006 11:57 AM

Jonathan, which layout is the favourite at the moment?

Southwell 20-09-2006 01:46 PM

I like Spec A layout most but wouldn't that mean you would need cells for 2wd and 4wd?....if you ran slim 2+4.

Northy 20-09-2006 01:58 PM

Spec B looks like it would be better ballanced to me.

Mmmm, interesting....

BenG 20-09-2006 02:06 PM

I like the idea of having a *top deck on the spec B* spec B looks better IMO

PaulRotheram 20-09-2006 03:20 PM

spec A has a top deck too though? :confused:

PaulRotheram 20-09-2006 03:23 PM

I like Spec B, but the placement seems to be too far back and not enough weight at the front to give additional steering.

All the weight towards the rear, cells + motor could make the car handle bad when traction is low as it could make the car want to 'swing' more.

Spec A seems to have abit more weight further forward, and more centralised than B. but as already said surely you would need two lots of cells to run both the S2+4?
