Direct Drive

[lutach]

Both my truggies have solid center diffs (Which acts like a direct drive, motor in the center going straight to the F/R diffs) and they act just like a 10th scale 4WD vehicle. My MBX5T turns on a dime and the tank BPP does turn on a dime when traction is available .

For some reason I can't find that picture that shows the BPP set up. In the following you'll see the MBX5T, Ofna (Old pic and that solid diff is in the BPP Truggy) and my XTM buggy.

The BPP truggy in that video weighs over 12lbs. and the wheels used are 3/4 offset so that's why it's turning a bit wider. My MBX5T has a similar set up and it turns on a dime. The reason I don't use a normal diff in my BPP is to the fact that I tried all types of oil thickness and nothing stopped the unloading to the front wheels, plus I think the diff works best when used with the mechanical brakes to allow brake bias.
