digi-propo zz's....... insanity

Post by solaris0069 »

the steering would be moved to the rear and it would use two motors, one for each wheel,and when you turn one tire would spin faster and the front tires would not have any sort or turning "apparatus" like my i-racer, just freespin matchbox wheels, however i had a theory, it came to me in a dream it was to put the dual motors and pcb board from an i racer into a cheap project clone and wire up the motors to the electro magnets in the front so variable ammounts of electricity would pass through the coils thereby giving the little "i-clone-racer" fully digital proportional steering youd hve to use the i racer controller but with all the cars/ tanks ive seen that use two motors for turning you cannot interchange motors so i think that the zz2.0 would "as i said before" the steering would be moved to the rear and it would use two motors, one for each wheel,and when you turn one tire would spin faster and the front tires would not have any sort or turning "apparatus" like my i-racer, just freespin matchbox wheels,or my ingenious fully digi-propo idea but they would have to pay me royalties to have two motors that were interchangeable they would have to greatly modify the chassis thereby changing the body design in conclusion the zz2.0 would not be completely interchangeable with motors and suspension one way and bodys the other way. someone test my theory and lemmie know
