Default awd

can someone tell me how to get better power to each wheel, it seems like i can stop them to easily, and like they get uneven amounts of power, like wat differential should i use, wat r the consequences, i just want the power to stay at all wheels, if the wheel has no traction or not.

Default posi-trac

if you want some real griping power in the rear of a AWD then make a posi-trac gear!!!!!!!!
a posi-trac geat gives you eqauly distributed power but you wont have LSD(limited slip differentail) no more. you can put a posi-trac in the front but your turning will decrese.
all you have to do is open up the white diff and crazy glur the gear parts.


DONT DO IT UNLESS YOU HAVE EXTRA DIFF SO IF YOU DONT LIKE IT YOU PUT lsd BACK IN IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gpm makes aluminum knuckles. You can buy a set from www.cjshobbies.net . I have bought a few things from them and found that shipping and service was top-notch.

Default steering

there could be a couple things rong with your turning, 1st check your controler and make sure the range is set to max and 2nd check the tires, if you have hard tires in the front on tiles or a slipery surface the front tires will slip and will cause traction in the front to suck @$$!!!!!!!!

I think he's actually using a white diff, which when 1 wheel gets greater resistance, the wheel with less resistance gets all the power.
