djoptix Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 The Stalwart's over-terrain capabilities come from the fact that the six-wheel-drive system lacks differentials, using simple bevel gears to transmit drive. A centre mounted no-spin differential allows a certain amount of slip between the two sets of wheels on each side of the vehicle on hard surfaces, but there is no allowance for rotational speed differences between front and rear. sez Wikipedia Heidel_Kakao 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dobloseven Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 When I were a lad, I had a Matchbox model of an Airport fire tender. Think it was an Alvis Saladin. Think there was a Sararcen armoured car as well. Or was it the other way round? They had six wheels as well. Would they have had anything in common with a Stalwart?

Dead_E23 Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 I think the fire engines were called Salamanders, the salamander being a kind of newt-like creature that is mythically associated with fire. All of those Alvis 6 wheely vehicles had stuff mechanically in common - not sure if it was just the drivetrain or if they had a common platform type scheme worked out.

Yes very much so, they are all effectively based on the same six wheel "chassis" or hull in the case of the Stolly. In fact within the spares package included with the MK1 Stolly(No 22 by the way, not thought of a name for it yet) I got last week is a Scaracen differential which will fit in and apparently raises the top speed from 40 to 50MPH! So that will obviously be going in Biggles my road going Stolly. eddyramrod and LightBulbFun 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johngarty Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 I don't come on Autoshite much anymore and this thread is exactly why. The bloke has disposable cash and wants to follow a bit of a dream and just goes for it. He has some mental health issues but is fine at the moment thankfully, but some of the comments against him are frankly disgraceful and could depress anyone, let alone someone with issues. He wins thread of the year and is now frankly ridiculed, disgusting. What happened to just being an eccentric Englishman? Were they banned in the new 'woke' laws? The biggest shock is that he has took all that shite and still hung around. This place isn't what it used to be...

You know why I didn't give a fuck when some concerned citizen reported me to the police because of my guns? Good you've had your guns taken away we don't need our own Port Arthur massacre at the field of dreams, it shows something in this country is actually working, looking at your responses and behaviours in this thread you aren't responsible enough to have access to an air rifle let alone a fire arm and this whole thread proves it. Posting a fucking hit list of everybody who had disagreed with you, why the fuck you haven't been banned or put on pre-mod god only knows. TLDR take your medication or practise breathing and thinking before you post or act and yes I do have personal experience of manic depression before you start throwing that card about.
