  9. Project Quality Assurance Plan GENERAL: • Made by Highly Experienced Professionals • Complies with all Codes and Regulations • Ensure the Client is Always Informed of Project Status • Ensure Product Quality Exceeds Expectations VEHICLE SPECIFICATIONS: • Design Speed • Turning Radius • Battery Life • Stopping Time (time needed to make the car completely stop) • Distance from controller • Approved Surfaces • *ALL TESTS WERE TESTED WITH AND WITHOUT FAN ON BOTH HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL SURFACES RACE TRACK: • Racetrack Surface (Marble, Tile, carpet, etc.) • Minimum race track radius • Breaking distance ( distance needed to make the car completely stop) • Ensure that Vehicle Will Be Able to Navigate Through Course

  10. Product Testing

  11. Product Testing

  12. Product Testing Turning Radius: 3” Minimum for Racetrack Battery Life of Vehicle: 3 Minute Minimum for Racetrack Controller Range 7 feet *This is distance that vehicle will work without control lag ex. Move vehicle forward on controller, takes a second to actually move *Receiver is on Back of Vehicle

  13. Product Testing Approved Surfaces: Smooth Surfaces Wood Tile Marble Smooth Wall Surfaces Failed Surfaces: Uneven, Porous, Broken Surfaces Non-Smooth Wall Surfaces Carpet Stopping Time: Minimum 0.75 Second for Track *Stopping Time Will Vary On Surface

  14. Product Testing Summary
