Truck Trial Contests
rm8 replied to paave's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
no offence, It's just our experience. We are driving this event from 2016 or earlier. First we had two groups: with open diffs and factory stock detailed offroaders, and locked diff unimited offroaders. Adult fans preferred first one. As for manual locking diffs: whole idea is to pass the track without touching car by hands, because there is a thin line between turn on locker/low gear and help car by hand when it stuck somewhere. Madoka designed self locking diff - but it means it can be adjusted to trun on too early, like there is no open diffs at all. In real world majority of 4x4/SUV have only transaxle locker, incuding Land cruisers, and front/rear locker as option: with wide suspensrion travel and weight of car - it's enough (even safer for transmission in lame hands). So, talking about open diff cars in this event - it is not 100% true. Center differential is missing, so it means its locked. Just add proper suspension travel and correct weight balance. Here is old video with open and locked diff -

With closed diffs it is much easier to pass obstacles and no need to work with weight distributionand and suspension (actually it may not work at all) of model . Also no need to select best route. Less engineering, less driving skills needed. Driving closed diffs more like a sprint race. We don't like easy ways. -

@paave again could easily hit all your arguments, but wont do that. Now itβs clear - your personal negative relation behind all that. No reason to discuss further. All others, exuse me that you had to read all that.
