A 1023 speed gearbox has been built into a large remote controlled car chassis. The car can be steered and driven via remote control using two channels. The gears can be manually changed using ten selectors that drive ten differentials. This allows for one of 1023 different speeds to be selected to set the car's forward and reverse speeds. The car drives well on carpet as well as a smooth surface. It uses 4 large 10cm diameter wheels and a medium sized motor for the steering mechanism. The main drive is from a large power functions motor. The gearbox functions are explained in detail.

Wow! The gearbox is impressive, and although it is probably too impractical for realistic model cars, it is fun to see it in this form!

Yeah it is a bit of fun. Just trying to do something different ;) I was actually surprised how well it worked.

Yeah I guess that's something you can do...I think Ill stick to my 6speed manual gearbox tho :head_back:

Hey Gray Gear - yeah you probably won't miss the other 1017 speeds - I didn't lol :classic: I guess you won't be interested in a 100,000 speed gearbox then? What if it had reverse? :laugh:
