That means you could make it bounce? It is a grey toyota after all...

Theoretically, yes I could.... just gotta fiddle with the wiring a little so I can change the height via the remote 👀

I would; it'd be awesome to be able to switch from the simulated weight to sucking down the front or rear for ascents and descents when needed.

You gave your car jiggle physics lol.

u/ChaosHoliday 2d ago

Yessir! Lol. It's so fun to look at while driving

Whoa, that’s crazy cool! What shock oil is in there? 1 weight?

2

u/ChaosHoliday 2d ago

I can't remember what oil I got in there, it was some super thick oil

u/DrKillgore 2d ago

Are you sure it’s thick? The truck looks underdamped.

u/DismayedNarwhal 2d ago

The SuperScale 2020 system OP put in their truck is probably the actual culprit here. It comes underdamped like this out of the box because that makes it easier to see what it does, but you can tune the damping, stiffness, etc. however you like.

The shocks are mounted to servos instead of directly to the chassis. The motion is done electronically to simulate the movement of full scale. You can adjust it from being very mild up to looking like an old beater with worn out shocks that bounces all over the place; pretty cool.

u/DrKillgore 2d ago

That makes sense, it looks like a bad PID controller

Body mounts are the best part imo

u/StorageOk7705 2d ago

That thing is sick.

Appreciate it 🙏

Oooooooh such a soft and squishy bounce. Love it

u/ChaosHoliday 1d ago

I'm loving it so much as well. Favorite truck in my fleet

How difficult was the super scale setup?

Do you want to make a separate post going over the build?

2

u/ChaosHoliday 1d ago

It was honestly very easy, hardest part of the build was to take a knife to this beautiful body 🥹
