Here's my latest WIP, the Ram 1500. This is mostly based on my desire to do a vehicle with 8 speeds. Ram 1500 has an 8-speed transmission in reality.
The model has several functions in place already:
-Steering
-Drive (4x4)
-Suspension (Front has positive caster angle, rear live axle)
-8 speed transmission with 90-degree shift (Not done yet)
Here's a picture:
Drive is with 1 xl motor right now, but it will be changed to 2 as 1 does not have enough torque for gears 6, 7, and 8.
Steering is with 1 m motor.
The front suspension has a positive Caster angle. It was built by angling the suspension beams and securing them to the chassis.
The rear axle is incredibly weak right now. PLEASE LEAVE A SUGGESTION FOR OW I CAN IMPROVE IT.
Here's the gearbox up close. The entire section of the chassis is extremely dense, but the is no gear slipping when driving.
Please leave a suggestion, and I will update the thread soon! Thanks for your attention.
