I think the idea as a whole is good. But having independent motors on each wheel would get spendy the maintain. When I drove electric fork lifts, they were powered similar to your idea. The motors however took a beating, that is for sure. Although they carried more weight of course. But RC's would require smaller motors to power each wheel, this would add some weight as well as a suspension that could also work and handle it as well, and would also add some weight. I would think the motors would eventually wear at different times and end up getting costly and a PITA to repair. yes it would handle like a dream, but at what cost?
