Tamiyacowboy Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 do you have a few grams of weight space on the chassis / body. we pilots when we want airspeed run a brass tube fitted to a very small electronic box. it reads the max airspeed gained. ( see a test other night on youtube, an RC18R (mini rally car) top out at 81mph). i know you use a very niffy speed trap but wondered if you ever ran a secondary system onboard. i also though a couple three of these unit on a prototyped body and a couple runs would give you an idea of airflow movement over/around the body. Oh and keep up the fantastic work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajlovering Posted October 18, 2014 Author Share Posted October 18, 2014 Airspeed is not really of any use for a car. I need the speed relative to the ground. We use double speed traps to ensure accuracy Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
