Hello, now torsion chassis is built. Who has information or experiences to add? My info is limited to this site.

Hi

First saw the "torsion" out of england in the late 70s. My pen pals in ECRA Peter Crane and Ian Jensen sent me stuff all about it.

I have been using it since. Some rules with hinge limits don't allow it these days. And, I prefer to have it as an addition to a traditional side rail frame approach rather than a stand alone apprach.

Thanks.
Both chassis run completely well. With the one I a Body out lexan blocked, runs super. I can compare it however only with available chassis, since hardly one builds here. Second I under my Mustang GTO built. It acts around a Revell kit, with driver and everything. There am I not completely safe me whether it is too little rigid possibly and too much in itself moved? Has in addition who more experiences?

Most people who scratchbuild do a torsion rail chassis if allowed. They have better exit speed than a non pivot chassis. You can "tune" the chassis by changing rail diameter and length.

Nice chassis Geb! These are a couple of 1/32 torsion bar chassis I built. The first one is a sidewinder that has .032" thick pans but was to have a thick piece of brass mounted loosely in the center section except that I couldn't figure out how to do it ...until Mike Steube did the same thing on one of his early F1 scratchbuilts...but now I'm too busy...hey this is a long sentence.



Below is another torsion bar chassis but this time an anglewinder with thick pans and nothing in the middle.



A construction article on a 1/24 scale torsion bar Scale chassis is Over Here..? because it's kind of long to post here.

Bob, nice BRM!

[endbelldrive]

Thanks Dokk. It never got finished because I couldn't fit scale wheels under the front fenders. :|

Hi Gebi,

:idea:

Dieses ist ein Sprachenübersetzungshilfsmittel, es ist kostenlos, möglicherweise können Sie es versuchen, um Ihr Deutsches ins Englische zu übersetzen. Ich spreche nicht Deutsches, wie Sie mögen diesen Test?
Ihr Torsion Auto schaut nett, und ich hoffe, daß Sie alle neuen Freunde mögen, die Sie hier bilden.

@pablo
Thanks for the reference. I have also such a program, unfortunately can it not all translated. Besides I also a little want to learn thereby (English).

@endbelldrive you have one PN

Well, that translator is pretty cool!
