For a second I thought Armin was a Jordan but super sized 😂Both are buff looking dudes

Airplanes have redundancy on all crucial systems, but Cybertruck doesn't have redundancy on power for example. So if power fails, you will lose steering. There's a reason why other brands still have mechanical backup on drive by wire systems. Also the amount of electronic overhead on this system leads me to believe it's not as cheap or as light as its mechanical counterpart. As far as boats, we've seen what happens when they lose power, they collide into bridges because they lose steering, for example.

Monroe team member is chomping at the bit to say more. Sandy is looking as fantastic as ever, but these young bucks are eager. Bless you both. This isn't an easy transition....car included.

Very nice that the logo of ZF (Zahnradfabrik Friedrichshafen) from Germany is on the case. This confirms, once again, how self-confident ZF is, that they are able to enforce their logo there at Tesla. This also shows that Tesla simply uses the innovations of Tier 1 suppliers for many components.

Glad to see other Munro team members showing their expertise in these tear downs.
-
I can honestly say I didn't think this was going to happen but I'm taking delivery of my cyber truck before Sandy finishes the teardown.

As much as I like Tesla and the Cybertruck- I have to point out that the 2 ribbon cables which provide steering input commands to the rack and pinion motors does not qualify as redundant, much less "double redundant" Both ribbon cables share a single connector which means the connector becomes a single point of failure that impacts both systems. This concerns me as it would not qualify in an industrial application as "redundant" much less when applied to a "people mover" application.

lock-to-lock is closer to 340 degrees. From centered to max turn is about 160-170 degrees.

Jordan had a growth spurt! Haha. Great video guys!
-
Wait, so the redundancy on the cabling is done with cables that are TOUCHING each other? So if some physical damage occurred to one wire will very likely affect the other wire set that is TOUCHING it? Crazy.
-
3 cheers to Sandy and his crew for yet another so nice explanation.
-
One of my favorite things to do in my Cybertruck is u-turns. Especially when I have someone with me who drives trucks.

Grats @TeslRebuilders, happy that you’re getting something you’re so excited about. People hating on Tesla cause it’s en vogue while ignoring the content of the videos they post on really need to re-evaluate their priorities in life. Constructive criticism is one thing but being an ass just for the sake of it or trying to make people feel bad for what they choose to do with their money is such a waste of energy, go focus it on something constructive.

Thank you for bringing that to us. Surrealism defined.
-
Great video, very educational. It's all about the tech! Thanks guys.

Armin is what Jordan Arocha would look like if you put him in the Captain America machine!

In control engineering, the arrangement is called 2oo3 ( 2 out of 3majority voting ) system....not triple redunandant. Triplr Redundant to a SINGLE control unit is adequate to guarantee an acceptable level of safety such that any fault will automaticallly force the car to go into a safe state to protect the car and its occupants from an accident.
-
Isnt it better to make the cable separate? What if something happens that the cable is damaged. If they are so close together they can be both damaged
-
Just awesome presentation. Keep it up Sandy. We're counting on you!!!

In 1988 a friend bought a Honda Prelude with 4 wheel steering. Not steer-by-wire, but that thing was fun to drive. Thanks for the descriptions and views of the beast's steering.
