Re: Where to buy a 'Robot sized' CV Joint

CVD's and differentials?

sounds like a 4wd Ackerman steering bot to me....

with the low traction you really don't need either. just let one slip, i even like how a solid axle handles (rc car racer)

instead of cvd's i thought of using a flex shaft, honestly, with the almost no traction your not gonna be able to put down any power, so in this situation, you could get away with it.

you can call me a idiot for cheating the differentials and constant velocity shafts, but your not trying to make it last thousands of miles before a tire change, and the low friction even helps this fact.
