Looks awesome, pretty sure theres a thread on this already.. sexy none the less :)

That cad program looks very realistic.

NICE!!

That is pretty much how I'd make a perfect car... No nasty diff gears to worry about. If the belt holds up how I would imagine that would be great...

What scale is that? Too bad it has flathead screws.

my only complaints are the drivetrain (belts?!?!?!) and that remote... o, and what the muffins is up with all the flat-head hardware?!?!?

Only problem is that it has very limited room for other things on the chassis.:whip:

Neat way to package things, with battery and motor (heaviest components) mounted central to the chassis. Being a concept, hardware appearance is a non-issue. I would imagine that what you gain from 4-wheel steering around corners, you loose down the straights trying to manage traction and keep a straight line. Plus, the lack of a center diff would pose jumping/rough track issues as well.

For 4 wheel steer a 400oz. servo?

looks neat, but the stearing looks like it would have alot of play useing that many links

Very cool. What pitch/width belts do they use?

Its just a prototype CAD drawing.....until someone actually makes one, this stuff wont be known...
