About the Underdrive Portal Gear

Underdrive

Underdrive portal gears improve climbing control by slowing the rear wheels, allowing the front to pull the vehicle over obstacles and reducing the risk of flipping. They also reduce torque twist, enhancing stability on uneven terrain. The slight difference in wheel speeds improves traction and steering response, aiding in tight turns and rock crawling. Additionally, underdrive gears put less strain on drivetrain components, extending their lifespan. However, they are not ideal for high-speed driving and require proper gear matching for balanced performance.
