I love the outrigger solution. Very clever! Outstanding job overall on this model.

In some of the pictures I I see what looks like a homemade transmission but I'm a little confused. Does it contain a differential? If so why, I'm not sure I understand it's purpose. Thanks.

It is a differential and the purpose is to divide the power between the rear 2 axles and the front 2 axles. This way it will have permanent 8 wheel drive.

Very nice work. The 2 speeds trans is a nice touch, you are not cuttings corners anywhere!
