Thought I would post this up in here, there is a build thread here if you are interested in the rig.

A little video footage from this past weekend with the MOW. The guys had a good time watching it run and were pretty surprised by just how d@mn loud the fan is. "thumbsup"

In a few instances it doesn't crawl very well, or makes a terrible noise and that is because;

The motors are not sensored so i have pretty much 0 torque at low speed :\

Gearboxes are 3D printed plastic and the bearing retainers are starting to wear out.

It's looks like you have invented a whole new class of clod stall, let's call it the MOW stall (but since you are the founder you have the honor of choosing the official name)..
MOW stall is when you have an individual stall of each and every one of the wheels separately.
It's actually works as you have an limited slip diff front/back and left/right (torsen diff).
How are you planning of facing this problem?

Looks very good. It's nice to see some thing different on here from time to time.
