Max Mört explains how their friction characteristics can help you decide if you should run constant-velocity driveshafts (CVDs) or universal joints in your car. He uses a 1/8 off-roader for his demos, but the physics apply to all types of RC race cars.
Max Mört goes in depth on anti-roll (sway) bars, explaining how they affect handling for off-road cars, how to choose thicker or thinner bars, how the anti-roll bar affects the car over jumps, how important it is in comparison with other settings, and how ARBs interact with your wheelbase and driveshaft choices.
Which type of driveshaft is right for your car? Joe explains what track conditions are ideal for each, with a focus on 4WD cars.
