    I just saw your brickshelf ... its a pretty cool axle design
  3. midengineaddict
    do you have 2 L motor in the front to or just in the rear?
  4. midengineaddict
    its not a gear in the axle who are slipping, it's a gear in the front of the chassis who take the power from the middle section of the chassis to make the front end steer... its custom made and can be easily fix but the fact is that I have use 16 gear to make my steering system and its to much friction to make it reliable.

    In my next 8x8 crawler project I have the intention of trying a setup with the two rear axle with 2 L motor each (a motor for each wheel). the two front axles only will steer with a servo, an L motor and a differential on each axle... and all axles will be floating with 4 links and horizontal chock absorber. Did someone know if its a goon idea or if a topic already talk about this setup?

    So, I tried the truck this morning. It drove very well for it's massive size for 1 hour... And then the direction fails, too much gear to make 8 wheels steer with 2 servos and the gears was not locked enough and they began to skip... It's a good thing that I was decided to try another concept before this morning... I have 2 choices, improve the concept or start a new project... I choose the second one.

    Does a 4 links floating suspention with mog's ball joints flex less than a floating suspention without them or is it the same ???
  9. midengineaddict
    My 8x8 crawler use the 9398 suspension and it doesn't flex enough, your floating axle suspension seems to flex more with less resistance and look stable... I will try that in my next 8x8 crawler...

    I will keep the black and yellow color scheme but I'll buy some parts to make it look better... I'll make a video when the battery pack and the receiver will be installed, hope I'll have some time this week...

  13. midengineaddict

  14. midengineaddict

    Is the Gear 24 Tooth Clutch ... http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=60c01 someweare in the steering is good to prevent everything to break when a M motor is use?
  16. midengineaddict

    The truck steer with two 9398 servos and Technic Knob Wheel [/img] [/img] [/img] Because it have two servos, it can do Crab steering to [/img]

    [/img] [/img] It's been a long day of work but the project is on its way....
  20. midengineaddict
    It will be 8 wheels steer with 2 servos, so the front axles and the rear axles will be independent steering. It's 5:30 in the morning, and I can't wait to build the chassis I will post my progress by the end of the day...
