Hi guys,
Well I didn't expect this post to be taken quite so seriously!!!
This didn't (as I mentioned in my closing statements) turn out to be the "best" way to demo the Revo, for some of the reasons you've mentioned between you and was more just a fun idea (again as I mentioned), just to show "some" control and how insane it was for anyone (never mind a claimed expert), to connect a nitrous supply to a Spider type device WITHOUT control.
However I am surprised at Dave's comments in paricular (and I know they are not intended in any bad way), for the following reasons;
1) The Spider does hovers just off the bench at the start and then rises to a second level which it stays at for a while before rising again.
2) The rates of change of position are just as indicative of the control as any static positions it held
3) When you take in to account the effects of gravity and the weight of the Spider (as the other guys mentioned), it's quite an achievement in control that we managed to do what we did.
4) Just keep in mind that this was just a QUICK demo and if it had proved to be a better method of demonstration that it did, I would put some more time to it. However, gravity etc. make it a poor demo method, so we'll be leaving it there with this one.
The real proof can only be demonstrated on the track UNFORTUNATELY, not even a dyno will demonstrate how beneficial the precise and responsive control of the Revo can be, so it will be next year before we can get back on tracks to achieve that.
Please see the Lambo thread to see where I'm at.
