Several major redesigns later, we’re still having problems. Although the “gears” we installed are pretty much the burliest thing ever, the gears between them and the differentials are not. On the side of the car that has an extra gear (so that the two pairs of wheels turn in the proper direction), the whole gear system tends to be forced downwards, separating from the bottom of the car. On the other side, the single intermediary gear is just pushed out of its socket along its axis of rotation.
These are difficult problems, to be sure, and we can’t go on without fixing them, but they are of a different nature than the ones we’ve been facing. Our intrinsic design is inherently better than before, and we just need to overcome these difficulties in its implementations. I am confident in our ability to do so.
