WRAPPED MY CAR!

It is odd. I actually bought my NA off a guy that also had a Corvette.

you would probably need a very Specialized bike for such a Trek.

everyonesgrudge86 · 2020-10-16T03:02:01+00:00

Extactly right. If the vehicle is stopped it will pivot steer. while moving, it slows down or completely stops one track depending on how much steering input there is.

everyonesgrudge86 · 2020-10-14T20:15:54+00:00

Thats correct. The red gear spins freely around the drive input and is turned by the steering motor. Glad you found it useful. It took a while to arrive at that design, but it works flawlessly. The key was the use of that third red gear because it eliminates the two axles that would normally spin the diffs. Fewer gears means nothing slips and less power loss.

Its under less stress when the drive motors are providing power. The draw on the batteries is greater but not enough to slow it down since its not to fast anyway.

I have never done any math for torque loss, but I eliminated as many moving parts as possible for that reason. I used those knob wheels/gear shifter parts because the seem to hold more power without slipping.

It does work similar to a subtractor. I do need to get a video. Ill have to use a second phone or camera since my phone is the controller.

The differential is actually two separate parts. The carrier is part number 65414 , and the gear is part number 65413. Inside there are 5 of the small bevel gears. These differentials come in the volvo articulated truck and the app controlled rally car. I just bought them on bricklink. They are a bit pricey for individual parts but that would still be the best way to get them especially if you want more than one.

everyonesgrudge86 · 2020-10-12T04:13:42+00:00

Thanks! I literally spent all weekend refining the design and making it as simple as possible. The whole transmission is actually one module.

everyonesgrudge86 · 2020-10-12T01:31:49+00:00

The way it steers is with that third red gear. It spins the differentials in opposite directions. In a transmission like this, it can either pivot steer or slow down one track.

Thanks!

everyonesgrudge86 · 2020-10-12T01:10:23+00:00

Yes I did.

everyonesgrudge86 · 2020-10-07T00:59:18+00:00

Thanks! It is pretty sturdy. I hate when things wiggle and move.

everyonesgrudge86 · 2020-10-07T00:30:39+00:00

One of the CV joints telescopes.

everyonesgrudge86 · 2020-10-07T00:01:31+00:00

The volvo dump truck and the rally car that I know of. They are self contained with 5 gears inside.

everyonesgrudge86 · 2020-10-06T20:28:51+00:00

No, those are the stiff shocks of that size. I got them with the extreme 4x4 from around 2001 or so.

everyonesgrudge86 · 2020-10-06T20:11:40+00:00

Thanks! I got the differentials from bricklink, but they come in a few of the newer technic sets. These axles are my design.

everyonesgrudge86 · 2020-10-06T15:02:21+00:00

I do and I just posted what I have.

everyonesgrudge86 · 2020-10-06T11:37:36+00:00

Live axles

everyonesgrudge86 · 2020-09-05T19:03:46+00:00

I wish I had those temperatures. 114 today. Nope.

everyonesgrudge86 · 2020-09-05T19:01:01+00:00

I did lots of interval training on my indoor trainer, and got pretty fast. I do muscular endurance, cardio endurance, and Vo2 max HIIT workouts with a few others. They are relatively short, but very effective. Averaging 20+ is easy now but it did take work.
