      Please select me to win these axles. I have just gotten into this hobby for 1/10 scale crawling to help with stress and anxiety with my line of work. Law enforcement has gotten difficult in our world, and this helps keep my mind off of the job and away from negativity. Thanks for considering me. Adam does things right by making videos to include his son. Way to go. Great dad!

    Kudos to Shaun Chu for bringing torque vectoring to the RC crawler world! Best of luck with your entrepreneurial venture.
    I am afraid that I will now have to buy an Axial SCX10 II or an Element Enduro to try this innovative tech out for myself. Decisions, decisions.
    I hope that these axles will eventually become available in aluminum or brass. I am fascinated by shiny objects.
    It would be amazing if this technology could be brought to the 1/18th and 1/24th scale crawlers. I would buy two Sparc Drive axle sets today if I could use them with my TRX-4Ms.

      It will give you a reverse penalty if any tire goes backwards, rules don't need to change.
      Won't get outlawed, and probably won't get used much because the weight and size penalty. Most comp rigs have so much steering and overdrive ratio that turning radius is tiny. Blip it around

  • @Bryzle1
    @Bryzle1 6 месяцев назад +4

    Planetary gears are used on all large heavy construction dirt moving equipment with axles. They are incredibly durable given the forces put on them because the force exerted on them is evenly distributed over 3x the gears. That’s why a fully loaded dump truck can go up/down 45 degree hills without breaking. That’s why a scraper can gouge the dirt and fill a pan with relative ease at 20 mph in seconds. The force multiplication in a planetary gear setup has such a massive advantage over regular wheel systems. I love the fact the tank turn is incorporated into this ‘new’ RC axle.

    The potential applications for all four wheel vehicles are mind blowing. Stoked it came to RC first!
