I have just finished a for its size high mobility trial truck. The dimensions are 16(W)x21(H)x56(L) and the weight is 1390grams with the pf battery pack. The dimensions are in a nearly correct scale in reference to the 62.4x20 S.
All Axles are Driven and fully pendular. Springs are not used, a tire load balancing shared the weight on each tire.
At a little testrun on a 100 % ascending slope i had a clicking noise and no propulsion on the Frontaxle. A re-design of the frontaxle have solved the problems and i could make a testrun in the Garden
After this testrun i was sure that the concept works and i could finalize the Chassis
First a picture of the testframe
And now the final one with added XL and M
After this i have completed the platform and the drivers cab
And finally a little bit rockclimbing
I think it is impressive how it goes over rocks.

This truck is really awesome. They way you built the reara xle to balance itself out i really inspiring! Can you make a bit faster?

Thanks, the rear axle is the wormgear version of my roadtruck Axle. The goal of the construction was a maximum ground clearance between the tires so i couldnt use the Axle of my Scania Project
The Gearratio is 1:12 and i think the compromise between torque and Speed is at the optimum.
