Cool, so WheelMan might be needing some tips from your side ;) Yeah I agree fell in love with it from when I started working on it, very different in concept from ACAD and 3DSMAX.
brainanator, Yeah on its lid! LOL even in simulations! Thats why I am experimenting to see if I can do some modifications before I start milling the pieces on my CNC. Still have to sort out the specific details to closely match reality, like the K of springs, Torque applied to the axles, Friction between ground and tires etc....
I see where you are coming from as I am a civil engineer by trade also. Miss the CAD too, RC got me back to CAD, 3DS and Inventor, actually Inventor cannot be considered a CAD program I think, it has a lot more dynamic simulation analysis and FEA (finite element analysis) also.
FEA can help also pinpointing the weak areas in the TVP's and bracing required.
