Abstract
The target of this research work is the electrification of a 1:5 scale vehicle used in off-road races allowing complete control on its dynamic, bypassing the stock transmitter/receiver system, poor in compatibility. The original vehicle is equipped with a 2-stroke internal combustion engine (ICE). It features a fully adjustable suspension system closely resembling those found on full-scale cars, including springs, dampers, and anti-roll bars, for both axles. Adjustable settings include the variation of spring’s stiffness, damping response, suspensions hardpoints etc. Thanks to the vehicle reduced dimensions the setup could be quickly varied, unlike full-size cars, which requires significant effort and specific tools.
Moreover, the size of the vehicle is significantly advantageous with regards to testing, since such a small vehicle does not require specialized test tracks and significant safety precautions
