Monster Truck |
|
This remote control program allows you to drive and steer
the truck using the "skid steer" technique. Skid steer needs the wheels
to slip on the surface to work well, so it steers best on carpet, not
smooth surfaces.

Is it better for a monster truck to have independent suspension, or should the rear wheels pivot together like a "solid axle" rear end? Does it depend on the situation? What about the front wheels? You can easily experiment with this by tying the rear and/or front wheels together with a beam as shown below. |
