To get a better idea of what the suspension of our cars really does while driving i experimented with a slowmotion plugin wich is able to render inbetween frames. Those are the results:
Mugen MBX5T Truggy
Motor: Neu 1515/2Y (1100kv)
ESC: Schulze 32.170
Batteries: 11s1p A123 (36,3V)

Robitronic Protos Buggy (modified with truggy arms and tires)
Motor: Neu 1515/2Y (1100kv)
ESC: Jazz 55-10-32
Batteries: 9s1p A123 (29,7V)

Typical video is shot with 25 or 29,97 frames per second. By reducing a video to 25% of its normal speed 1 second becomes 4 second meaning you have to generate 75 frames out of only 25 existing frames (captured originaly with your video cam). As you can see this plugin does a fairly good job and the results are very smooth looking slowmotion shots. But if you look closer you can see a few rendering errors: the rulux rims of the mbx5t sometimes do appear to be staying still.
Enjoy
