I think torque twist can be simplified. Assuming basic functions of gearing you are trading torque for speed and vise versa. If you look at the torque twist as coming from the driveshaft connection between the contained systems of the axle and transmission it becomes a simple argument of decrease the torque and increase the speed. Therefore an axle geared for more input speed from the driveshaft would impart less torque on the chassis i.e. the increased gearing of portal axles. If we pretend the transmissions and axles are perfectly ridged bodies in your example(wheels not allowed to turn) then the only places where torque can affect the system are at the connection points of the driveshafts. I think your test method is flawed since when the tires are in a bind the gearing the axles doesn't 'do' anything and the same forces from the transmission are able to lift the car just the same. If you allow the wheels to turn there will be much less chassis torque required to provide the same amount of torque to the axles. I think it would be interesting to attach a sled to rear axle and do a pulling test. At different weights on the sled how does a portal vs straight axle rig behave. I would hypothesize that the pulling force needs to come from the axis of the wheel for best results. A test done from the bumper of the truck or the diff of the axle would probably introduce too many variables.

I think what you are suggesting is inputting various levels of torque at the wheels with a sled. What I did was applied the maximum torque the vehicle could handle before flipping over. The magnitude of the force is not important - the reaction at the motor is the same and proportional. You will still get a proportional twist. I have a feeling I am going to need to demonstrate this to make it more clear. 100:1 reduction on both a portal and straight axles - it will produce the exact same twist.

Who will engineer and build a trans with a sideways motor mount applying the torque twist to force the front end down?

You’d need a belt drive from the motor to the axles. At which point MOA probably is simpler. I’d like to see 1 motor on the front axle and a belt traveling to the rear. 😅

Mmm, I must say that your video is extremely well detailed and explain, very nice!, but I think that the part on axle vs. trans reduction (which is the crucial part) is wrong. Bearings doesnt magically transfer the forces away, Newtons third law works between every force and load, so when a gear pushes the teeth of the other gear down, it itself pushed up. the fact that the gears rides on bearings doesnt eliminate that, and in the case of bevel gears it manifests as a twist forces.. The issue with torque twist is that one segment of the gear train is riding on soft springs instead of rigid gear case. so having this part face the least toque possible (and instead speed) is beneficial. That's why UDR is using extra planetary gear in the axle, and indeed having very little torque twist for a big 6s car..

@@yonicozac did you mean "portal axle" instead of "planetary gear on axle"? Portal axles mainly increase ground clearance. They can provide additional gear reduction, as shown in the video, but they can also have a 1:1 gear ratio. Edit: I just noticed you mentioned the Traxxas UDR; it does indeed have planetary gear reduction on the rear end. However, I don't think it’s a design choice to reduce torque twist. Having a gear reduction as a unsprung mass on an axle seems like a less ideal solution for the suspension... Why not use a regular gearbox on the chassis? idk but I'd love to learn :)

The UDR has planetary gearing in the nose of the differential. It does in fact do a huge part to reduce torque twist. This was an excellent video, and I have spent many hours researching this, but in my opinion, I still believe the more the gear reduction is done in the axle the less torque twist. I am actually experimenting with this in a build and it will be interesting to test the theories! This video does have me questioning my thoughts!

I hate to say it but you are wrong, simply changing a spur and pinion on the motor end won’t reduce torque twist in shaft driven rigs that have a transfer case because the amount of torque from the straight axle to transfer case for a particular obstacle through the driveshaft stays the same that way, however if you can increase the reduction in the axle housing it’s self it would require less drive shaft torque from the transfer case to overcome the same obstacle which will reduce torque twist, a greater reduction at the motor pinion will lower required amperage and reduce top speed and provide greater torque for the same amperage but doesn’t remove or reduce torque twist.

This is precisely why I produced this video because too many people believe as you do. Action and reaction. Action is at the content patch and reaction is at the skid. It doesn’t matter where the gear reduction occurs in between. There is no math that I know of that supports otherwise, but if you can show a correct force balance diagram that demonstrates your point…I’d love to see it.
@jamesstewart9970

It’s pretty simple, torque twist is a component of chassis the wanting to twist opposite of the drive shaft it’s self in relation to the axle housing, in order to reduce that force you have no other option than to increase reduction in the axle housing it’s self to reduce the amount of load on the driveshaft which reduces torque twist, it can never be eliminated entirely but it can be reduced but only through the axle housing it’s self unless you go to motor on axle. It wouldn’t matter if you had one million to one reduction between the motor and shaft because it would always require the same amount of shaft torque between the transfer case and axle housing to rotate the tires which is where the torque twist comes from. On non portal axles though it would require a lot bigger pumpkin with a massive ring gear and tiny pinion which means there would be even less ground clearance.
@BoomslangSuss

You are making the same mistake everyone makes. Your premise is based on the assumption that the shaft stops rotating at the axle pumpkin and the bevel gear. But the shaft doesn’t stop rotating at the bevel gear. It keeps on spinning until it meets resistance at the contact patch. Action and reaction. There is no reaction at the pumpkin. The axles keep on spinning in through the pinon and out the bevel gear. It’s not locked at the bevel and that’s what would be required for your calculation.

And the housing and chassis are independent of each other with the exception of the suspension and drive shaft, and unless you reduce the load on the shaft you end up with the suspension bearing the brunt of of that load and causing torque twist, the only way to reduce torque twist is by reducing the required torque through the shaft and that can only be done on the housing end..

I've heard that one but how I deal with torque twist is by adding dual stage shocks and having a piston from one side with one additional hole than the other side. I get almost no visible torque twist on my axial bomber despite using 2800kv 3s

Are you essentially saying that you have slower damping on one side because of less holes on the piston? That is certainly one way to help.

Counter rotating shafts should work under ideal circumstances with equal traction front and rear. When torque twist become a problem is on a steep climb, at which point the front end is very light and the front traction is low, so the vast majority of twist is coming only from the rear axle and the front axle's contribution is diminished. This is certainly something I'd like to test.

Usually thre "torque twist" we encounter comes down to traction...so because the twist eliminates almost all traction on the front it doesent matter in which way the driveshaft rotates ...the twist will be the same .
