This is my newest trial truck. It uses two independent XL motors, two portal live axels, improved steering and supension.
Because there are two independent drive motors for left and right side of the wheels, the lynx can skid steer. This feature is very usefull when offroading.



Here you can see the two independent drives:

The video of the truck:
I made instructions for the truck in LDD. There are wheels, 2x 4L racks and 2 new suspension arms missing. Replace one of the 24 tooth gears with a white clutch gear.

Very efficient !
Good job as usual.
You prefer buggy design to traditionnal truck cab design, don’t you ?

I prefer this design, because the truck is lower, it can be narrower in the middle, so there is less chance of getting stuck, and its much lighter this way.

Nice vehicle. I like the cab, but I don’t understand, why You called it a truck?
For me, it is a kind of big foot...
I’m not sure if the z24 and z8 in front of this car is a good idea because it is mounted on one side only.

Yeah, i could call it something else, thats why i just call it Lynx :) And the 8 and 24 tooth gears hold okay for me, they are used for steering, not drive.

Great truck Zblj! but to me also it’s more rock crawler than trial truck, i’m loving the skid steer function though, it’s something i thought about before now....
Is it as good at tackling steps as tt9? that truck was the bench mark for my own unimog’s performance....

Its same performance, if not better because of faster wheel RPM.
