Limited-Slip Differential Explained Lego-Style

Ignore the music.
Thought it was a pretty cool video. I know it's actually a locking differential but it's pretty educational. Ideally though, wouldn't you want the cams to disengage when the wheels are turning? What do you guys think?

He's got a lot of other videos as well.
