Hello everyone,

Anyone knows how they managed to steer the wheels like that to turn on a dime ?

Do they just have 2 rams connected to the steering column (for standard steering) and they disconect them from each other for that position on the picture ?

Definitly impressive engineering there!

The steering side is obvious.

The powertrain, not so much. Maybe freewheeling hubs?

Cheers

It could be an over running clutch system, we use similar systems in some products at work. With the drop at the wheel I would guess this is what it is.

Engineering has always been my love, but it ended up being my second career...
