RC cars with centre differential

Centre differential

— the centre differential is a mechanism that distributes the traction force from the engine between the front and rear axles of the machine; by definition, only found in all-wheel drive variants. In the case of radio-controlled models, the main purpose of this function can be called an increase in cross-country ability: when one of the axles slips, the differential removes most of the torque from it and transfers it to the second axle, which has normal grip. In addition, this mechanism, if necessary, optimally adjusts the speed of rotation of the wheels; First of all, this is true for sharp turns at low speed.
