DLuders Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 (edited) On his Brickshelf gallery, A77 (Ari Holoprinen) posted images and four LDRAW files on his "Twin-Stick Transmission." For those with 3 hands, one can operate the transmission and hold onto the steering wheel. His Brickshelf collection of Lego Technic transmissions include 9-, 12-, 13-, and 14-speed transmission designs. He placed his 14-speed transmission in a truck of his design. He really knows how to space Lego Technic bricks to get gear spacings correct: Edited January 11, 2011 by DLuders Quote
dhc6twinotter Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 That's a lot of different gear ratios! This reminds me of some the old Mack trucks. Some of them had twin stick transmissions. The good drivers would drive with one hand on each shifter. Left arm through the steering wheel with the left hand holding one shifter. Right hand holding the other shifter. There are some good youtube videos, and it definitely takes some skill. Quote
