RE: 4WD rally cars - OXO cube - 30th-May-24

not syre if this will help but :-

not an s-can , but Team Slot do a 4wd motor

Ref: TM-51004

Team Slot Motor TS5 4xPower.

and Avant do a long can 4wd motor

Ref: AS20107

Avant Slot Long Can Motor Hunter 4WD 25.000 rpm

I'm pretty sure Scaleauto did a 'sprinter 2' long can as a direct replacement for the SCX 4wd motor

also i recall reading somewhere that the front wheels should be geared to turn a little faster than the rears ( or is it the other way round )
but i have been known to be very wrong , very often hehehehe

good luck and have fun with your project , don't forget to keep us posted with your progress bud

Hi kevan what i want to do is fix a driveshaft from motor then to a drive shaft inline with front axle . Front shaft with pinions each end & spur gears on axle so " shaft drive 4x4". This way i can use AW pod or inline both 4WD. I cant find it done before so ive aplied for patent not because i hope to gain from it just as its my invention (well maybe lol). I hole to have parts to finish build in next 7-10 days so ill send photos to you straight away. I have lots more plans to try with slotcars too i love modifyng things. So again thankyou mate your replies & advice have realy helped me. Regarfs Bowley.

Sounds like something Andy Rowland has done a few times for special projects.

RE: 4WD rally cars - bowley - 30th-May-24

Yes you may well be right ive seen some of andy rowlands inventions. I dont know if its same as my idea but ill build it anyway & see how well it performs. do you have any more info on Andy Rowlands special projects? ive seen his gearbox idea but nothing else,thanks mate.

Andi brought this car to Gaydon. Beautiful work!

RE: 4WD rally cars - Kevan - 2nd-Jun-24

I seem to remember another divine creation by Andi a few years ago but can't remember what it was, maybe an Alfa Bimotore
