How much of that is down to the perspective difference of the camera? One photo is taken from a more forward position which could influence what is being seen hereGrrG wrote: ↑01 Mar 2023, 14:29red bull suspension modification

The same changes have been listed elsewhere in this thread - it's visible from multiple angles and a real changeicantride wrote: ↑01 Mar 2023, 14:38How much of that is down to the perspective difference of the camera?

I’m not sure that we can assume a caster increase from those pictures, the wishbone angle (relative to the wheel/chassis) has changed (which, if there were a significant amount of suspension travel would induce increasing caster IF the upper hub pivot follows a different arc to the lower one). The forces ‘seen’ at the tyre are likely to be affected more than geometry (they really don’t have a significant amount of suspension travel); if the lower hub pivot follows the same arc as the upper one there will be a tendency to VERY SLIGHTLY reduce the wheelbase under very heavy braking.SiLo wrote: ↑01 Mar 2023, 15:15How does increasing those angles affect the car? I've been wondering about how much caster they run, and how maybe more caster would allow softer spring rates but still give some higher spring rate behaviour because instead of the tyre being moved up and down, it's also being moved forwards and backwards.
Anyone with far more knowledge on suspensions help me out here, I'm just throwing out random thoughts as I find it interesting.
Is there more effective travel with more caster?
The endplate is shorter (in comparison to others), giving the impression of more overhang.BrunoH wrote: ↑02 Mar 2023, 09:36actualy seems there is more space between the front tires and the front wing than before... the suspension seems to be mounted a bit further back but with a slight V forward in the upper arm angle now however even with that still is a bit farther from the front wing!
