2:28 Though I understood almost yet I want a bit of confirmation. If say approach angle is 28° And Departure angle is 23° only then, effectively my approach angle is also 23° only since my vehicle's rear will be stuck on the incline even though my vehicle's front is able to get through.
You define breakover angle as that subtended by the distance between the bottoms of the tyres, from the midpoint of the bottom of the chassis. But it's really the angle supplementary to that.
Thanks for your observation. I’ve seen both versions in common usage. I tend to use the one shown in the video because it’s easier to visualise if you’re new to the concept, but I think the version you suggest can be more useful in predicting the practical consequences of break over angle.
There is another way to effect approach and Departure angle. Modify the front and/ rear of the vehicle. Depending on you vehicle this can be a cheap as removing the lower part of the bumper or as expensive as fabricating custom bumper and radiator placement. Plus in some countries you might not pass safety inspections.
Came here from r/overlanding. Really excited about this channel. Keep it up!!
Same !
Very straight forward and to the point. 10/10. Thank you for this video!

Nicely explained. You Not only just defined them but also described different ways to maintain the 3. 😊🙏🇮🇳
excellent explanation
Oh very good, explanation, thanks for the time and expertise.
Thank you. For the first time I understand this concept of angles.
this fixed my problem with bottoming out thank you 😂😒

Excellent video. Now I can stop feeling like an idiot every time I heard this in an offroading technical video lol.
Excellent
Impressive knowledge brother 👍

Welcome to India 😂🔥
Well explained kudos
Thank you. I'm trying to buy a good car to go up a hill or ramp in my mother's house. Some cars scratches the front
Carry some extra 2 x 8 off roading and you will gain clearance.
