Subject: [alt-beam] Re: symet with head?
For a Symet head, why not mount a small weight on the
head that would alter the balance of the symet to
influence its steering instead of the extra wheel. THis
would be more in the "Symet" spirit any way. If it
would work, you would not have to add the extra motor
and wheel which will just use more power.
Just my $.02
