Four Wheel Drive Car Super Adddition V3

Four Wheel Drive Car Super Addition Version 3 has arrived.
Electrical Components:
- Two NXT Intelligent Bricks
- Five NXT Motors
- One PSP-Nx sensor from mindsensors
- Two NXT Light Sensors
- Two Lamps
- Wires

Physical Makeup Highlights:
- Four Wheel Drive
- Four Wheel Steering
- Four Wheel Independent Suspension
- Two Gear Transmission

That is distributed as follows. Three NXT Motors are connected to one Intelligent Brick, and they all work together to drive the input to the transmission. The transmission is operated by a fourth NXT Motor, driven by the commander NXT Intelligent Brick. That brick also controls the steering motor and the lamps, which are on front and serve as headlights. It is also connected to the PSP-Nx and should be connected to the two light sensors, which should serve as rear lights.

I think that there was slippage in the transmission when just a bit of pressure was applied to the car (it drove onto a rug). However, that was just its chassis without its bodywork, there will be more weight now that the bodywork is added. I was more worried about the eight tooth gear that the transmission-driving motors turn.
