I think the problem is that if someone turned to sharp at a high speed, the momentum of the vehicle could cause it to tumble.<BR/><BR/>Howeever, with modern technology, it may be possible to restrict turning degrees at various speeds, using computers, gyroscopes, etc.<BR/><BR/>Perhaps this technology will be applied when we have robots driving CSM!https://www.blogger.com/profile/15443850750426624205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19396355.post-33078887907254680372009-03-31T06:52:00.000-07:002009-03-31T06:52:00.000-07:00The Dymaxion was just the most famous vehicle to u...The Dymaxion was just the most famous vehicle to use rear-wheel steering. It's really only suitable for slow speeds -- lots of fork-lift truck steer this way, as do "tail-dragger" aircraft. At higher speeds it becomes very unstable, as Fuller found out. Not a problem for those old slow electrics, though. And it made the folding front axle easier to do. Fun old videos!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
