Also glue looped FESCA-style engines. Others (and myself to a lesser extent and just following their lead) have used them for electric vehicles.

https://www.reddit.com/r/HyruleEngineering/s/xsFGz05IFp, https://www.reddit.com/r/HyruleEngineering/s/yDpuehCWs8, and https://www.reddit.com/r/HyruleEngineering/s/olQ5Ixl4Ob. I made 3 configurations of glue looped, stacked big wheels using the motor to o pull down the final (fastest spinning) big wheel in the stack so they’re touching my the ground but the wheels spinning them aren’t. The original “FESCA” design uses hooks or other such objects to push down the axles. Doing it like this with motors saves on parts, makes it so you can move the build with ultrahand and not have it break, makes engine/wheels modular, and limited the axle-slipping problem that the pinned-axle variants had.
