You are trying to replace action with reaction. It puts a software model on its back foot to begin with. Add the very real...

Those who believe that a motor on each wheel can "simulate" a locker are being proven way wrong with the Hummer and the Rivian quad motor.
The QM Rivian behaves so badly in low mu situations and low speed obstacles that I traded it for a loss for a new dual motor Enduro version, because dual...
