- do the coordinates on optimumK correspond to the coordinates in the CREO chassis
- Point in pointnet
- Framework: have a set of points, connects points with pipes
- where center of tube and joint meet
- each point in an excel sheet, in their own coordinate system, offset by 60 inches
- at the bottom of the middle of the car
- How are the .prt folders organized? are they all still in 19-20?
- Ans: spread out among three folders
- If not, is there a way to move everything to the 21-22 folder and organize them into updated branches without breaking the existing model?
- Ans: yes, just make sure we reference
- How do we plan on attaching the suspension to the chassis?
- Ans: have designed brackets, which are not in the chassis assembly
- Will have to figure out the length of tube with radius of tube, length of bracket, and jam bolt
- We have the bearings at the end of the a-arms... do they correspond to brackets welded on to the chassis? Do we know where those points are?
- How are the a-arms attaching to the wheel assembly?
- Has the wheel assembly been fully modeled?
- yes, kingpin has been modeled correctly, but check with thomas
- it is imported into the assembly, and is not fixed at right point
- are there coordinates? unclear, the chassis coordinates are in the afx chassis subassembly
- Do we have a working model of the full car, or at least driveline componenents?
- If not, I think we should make that next so we can create models that are dependent on established hardpoints, and also check to make sure parts are not in conflict with each other?
- answer: yes
- Do we have all our hardpoints set for driveline? eg. wheelbase, trackwidth, suspension travel, etc. If so, I think we can reverse-engineer a-arms based on that... although at this point we are constrained to the optimumK points, it might still be good to know how they correspond.
