Hoosier 18.0x7.5 - 10 in R25B
4x25.4mm caliper pistons
Aerodynamics
Sidepods with aerodynamic profile, front and rear wing, undertray and rear diffuser.
135 N of downforce @ 15m/s.
CL.A = 2.89 m^2
CD.A = 1.31 m^2
LIDAR
An under-the-nose mounted Ouster OS1-16 with a 120 m range and a useful 180° field of view (FOV).
Emergency braking system
A gas spring ensures the passive braking component required by regulation. For unbraking, a pneumatic system was implemented. This system is redundant in several directions to ensure the safety of the vehicle.
