Hi,
If you read the post, you have your answer 
I say we use GPM bulkhead to put the rear or the front diff on the other sens. So with that, all diff are in good sens, and all it's OK ! So the 6 wheels will turn in the same direction.
Today an udapte of the wheels and tires :
- maximizer white wheels
- HPI GT-2 tires
So beautiful !!! |

| no, i didnt mean the rotation of the diffs, i was talking about turning the whole vehicle, if the 4 rear tires turn in the same direction, wouldnt that just "push" the truck in that direction? regardless of which way the front wheels are pointed? |

Doooooood - re-read the thread. The rear wheels do steer in opposite direction to the front wheels. Look at the drawings, man. |

He's varying the turning angles of all 3 sets, If you change the length of the servo horn or the steering arms, you can adjust how much each axle will steer in relationship to the other 2. It will be a very efficient way of steer..
I wouldn't be surprised if this thing turns just as tight as a stock savage. |

this is what i was talking about. thanks.
i thought the 4 rears turned the same amount, hindering instead of helping the steering. |

No offense to MoldyMarvin, but this put his twin engine savage to shame! The detail of those CAD (I'm assuming that's what they are) is insane!!!
I'd love to see some videos of this things when it's done. |

How are you liking the front brake kit on the Baja? Do you have an aftermarket controller for either the Baja or the 6x6?
If you get a React controller, you can probably set it up so the front wheels turn at one rate and the rear at another. I know there is a way to adjust the brake bias (front to rear) if you have the radio in a 1/5 scale on-road car, so I'm thinking something similar can be done to the steering. |

Hi !
cmt56ss : sorry my friend doesn't have a React radio, but a Spektrum DX3.0
Today my friend realise the steering for the direction :
And a test between a stock savage :
Only 178cm to make a half turn for the 6x6x6 savage
And 195cm for the stock savage :
Just impressive ! |
