What is the difference between wide and standard width wheels for 1/10 scale buggies?

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Generally wide front wheels on buggies tend to smooth the cars steering response out and make the car easier to drive while adding steering on high bite blue groove tracks. Wide rear wheels tend to stretch out most tires and provide a larger contact patch for increased traction on a variety of track surfaces.

Why do most buggies have skinny front wheels?

The EDGE Products - Frequently Asked Questions
The idea is to penetrate that surface layer of dirt & get traction on the firm ground underneath. Wide tyres in the dirt can be like aquaplaning your car in wet conditions, you tend to float on that surface layer. When floating on that surface layer, you not only lose traction to drive you forwards, but you also lose your steering which tends to create understeer. In the sand you want a wider tyre to achieve floatation, because underneath that sand on a beach or sand dune, is just more sand!

Most real railroads in North America and Europe are built to a standard gauge of 4’- 8 1/2" . Narrow gauge means rails with a width less than standard gauge. Scale – The size of things on a model railroad relative to a real railroad.

Can I run scale wheels through your switches?

RCS Faq's page
The scale wheels have very small flanges and miss our low profile guard rail. What we have done for people in the past was to send them guard rails made from our regular height rail. Also scale flange wheels will fall into the frog that are manufactured for tinplate style wheels. This doesn't always result in a derailment but can affect the smoothness of operation.

Can the installation of hubcaps or Wheelskins mar the finish of my standard or styled wheels?

Frequently Asked Questions-Auto Amenity-Best Source for Hubc...
Yes, the retainer clips or struts that contact your wheel may mar or scratch its finish. The function of a hubcap or a wheelskin is to cover the wheel, and not fly off. In order for the clips to hold the hubcap on the wheel at road speeds upwards of 80 mph, bouncing over speed bumps and into potholes, they must put significant pressure against its surface.

What's the difference between short and standard scale tenor banjos?

UK Banjo Suppliers FAQ's
The obvious answer is the scale length. The standard tenor banjo evolved over a period of some years into a banjo of about 23" scale tuned CGDA. These days, they are also tuned GDAE (the so-called "Irish" pitch, one octave below a mandolin). This type of banjo is very good for playing chords in a jazz context. It is also excellent for playing melodies in the "Irish" context though the stretch from one note to another is a bit long for some players.

What is the difference between tubular and clincher wheels? Which should I get?

Endurance World: FAQ
Tubular and clincher are the types of rims that use different kinds of tires / tubes combination. Tubular rims are lighter and require the tire (a sew-up with the tube inside) to be glued to the rim. Clincher rims have a "lip" onto which the tires are attached (no glue required) to the rim. Tubular tires have the tube already inside, while clincher tires use a tube and tire that can be easily separated.

What is the difference between ? wave, 1/10 wave, and 1/20 wave mirrors?

Edmund Optics Technical Support
These values refer to the surface accuracy specification for the polished substrate of a mirror. Surface Accuracy describes the maximum allowable deviation of an optical surface from a perfect surface. If the mirror were flat, the value would give a reference as to "how flat". Since the test method used for inspecting surface accuracy uses a specific wavelength, the value is defined in terms of this wavelength. All catalog values refer to a maximum peak-to-valley value at 632.8nm.

How wide is a Chinese character in constant-width fonts?

Chinese Text Processing FAQ0.1
Marked-up text is usually displayed in constant-width fonts. Line length calculations are based on this. In order to figure out line-wrap positions with Chinese data, you either have to allow indent + ( linelength - indent )/2 characters per line. This works OK if the data is all Chinese. If the data is mixed Chinese and ASCII (as it often is in marked-up text) then you should increment the linelength counter by 2 when you get a Chinese character.

What is the difference between a standard camera and an EV series camera?

Rad-icon Imaging Corporation - Frequently Asked Questions
The simple answer is that our standard detectors are rated for the 10-50 kV energy range, whereas the EV series detectors are rated up to 160 kV. However, the actual situation is a bit more complicated. All x-ray detectors deteriorate over time as a function of the accumulated x-ray dose to the detector. The higher the x-ray energy, the faster the detector deteriorates.

What is the difference between the horsepower at the flywheel and at the wheels?

FAQs
At the flywheel horsepower is always higher than the wheel horsepower. When the power is being transferred from the engine to the wheels, so of the power gets wasted in the drivetrain moving parts, such as the transmission and differentials. So, the wheel horsepower is the power that actually made it to the wheels. Remember, AWD cars have a higher horsepower loss in the drivetrain than the FWD or RWD car.

What's the difference between horsepower to the flywheel and horsepower to the wheels?

w w w . v a n c o u v e r c i v i c s . c o m
Horsepower to the flywheel is usually what you see manufacturers stating about their cars. This means an engine without the transmission, wheels, etc.. is strapped to an engine dyno and the flywheel horsepower is measured. In the case of a 2000 Honda Civic Si, the motor is a D16Y8. The motor is rated at 127HP. This is the horsepower rating at the flywheel.
