Description

Working F1-Style Pushrod Suspension with Real Spring

This model showcases a functional pushrod suspension system inspired by Formula 1 engineering. Unlike purely decorative designs, this mechanism uses a real spring, allowing it to compress and behave like an actual suspension setup.

The motion is transferred from the wheel through the pushrod into a rocker, which then compresses the spring inboard — replicating the core principle used in high-performance race cars.  The colours are inspires by the 2x World Champion Fernando Alonso and his Renault

🔧 Features:

  • Fully functional suspension mechanism
  • Real spring for realistic compression
  • Pushrod + rocker system
  • Compact and clean design
  • Designed for easy assembly

🧩 Assembly:
This model requires a small real spring to operate. No complex tools are needed, and assembly is straightforward.

🎯 Use cases:

  • Educational demonstration (mechanics / engineering)
  • Desk toy with satisfying movement
  • Display piece for motorsport fans

⚠️ Notes:

  • This is a mechanical demonstration model, not designed for load-bearing applications.
  • Spring is not included and must be added separately.
  • Spring is not 100% needed, but it ensures a better functioning of the model

Feel free to customize the design or experiment with different springs to change the stiffness and behavior.
