he has to have it upside down to change the rotation of the tires back to normal, otherwise the front two tires want to go forward and the rear would want to drive backwards.

having the drive shafts counter rotate is supposed to eliminate torque twist .

looks awesome.

Hey EGRESSor,

I sent you a PM with a couple of questions about your knuckles back on the 22nd and a follow up a couple of days ago. I do not know if you received them or not but how else can I get a hold of you?

Gdday

Just wondering egressor how you mount wheels onto those cvd's and also do you have to mod anything but the bearing size in the knuckle and join the bit form the ax10 shaft that gos into the diff. Also do you get any more/less steer with these cvds?

Thanks mate

When you've got this much ackerman, who needs a LCC



When I see a well developed project like this it makes me want to keep my Axial and spend what I had saved for a Losi on upgrading like you've done here

Is it competitive against LCC's and Bergs?

So what's actually the point of flipping the rear axle and using a counter rotation unit??

The chassis looks almost brand new with the fresh black coating. Wheels look sick too!
