Everybody knows flux capacitors are too big to fit in an R/C car. They havent been able to shrink that technology down to 1/10 size yet. LOL! |
The 502 and other shaft cars lean to one side because of the longitudinal motor, not because of the centre driveshafts.
The moment of inertia of the driveshafts is insignificant; they are relatively lightweight; slender; have their acceleration cushioned by a slipper clutch and rotate 4x slower than rotor in the motor.
How many times does the DB-02 design need to be explained before people understand why it is the way it is???
