Found something intresting on Ebay

I can't see any kind car/truck working without a slipper or some kind of clutch. There's just no way. On an airplane...yeah. On a vehicle with 4 wheels...not a chance in hell. Even if this trany/motor combo holds up like the seller claims, the drive shafts and differential gears wont stand a chance. My guess is this seller drives his truck in a parking lot. Give that trany to me and I'd have it gutted within minutes in my off road bashing pit. One good jump and that sucker would be toast.

It would work if you got rid of ALL transmission components, and had a motor per wheel, running direct drive. You would need smaller, higher torque ones. Something like 20 poler, ran by smaller esc's, but i would think there would need to SOME communication between each controller to make it track straight...

IMO

Yeah. Something like a Pentium 4 to take care of the traction control. It's a pipe dream. At least it is for an RC. A real car that has all 4 wheels planted on the ground at all times and isn't quite so off road performance based would be more doable.

I just meant for keeping the same motor frequency, they just have to be synced is al. But, simply doing the throttle travel programming together is prob good enough anyways, i would think?
