@technicdesigner in order to function properly, there must be a air leak in the pneumatic circuit (otherwise the lock would never disengage). by fine tuning the air leak, you can achieve optimal result, that is: to not self-lock on corners, but to lock on real slip condition (when sufficient air is pumped in the pneumatic circuit) - it is all a matter of slip amount over time
@technicdesigner I'm planning to make an adjustable screw-based "leak" in order to allow calibration of that.... maybe I'll use one pneumatic T-junction with a very small screw, if I manage to find one
You are epic! You actually made a limited slip differential in Lego!!! Well done.
One thing... Does the slip detector activate when turning a corner?

@mescalinum
Ok, that sounds like a good idea :)
