> I think it's rather telling the video doesn't show it negotiating a corner at a lean angle. Presumably that's quite a problem. I would expect that it is eventually intended that it leans in a corner, it would just require a controlled reorientation of the gyroscopes, it looks as if they're mounted on gimbals already (to provide reactive counterbalance to any attempt to disorient it). I'm just guessing they need more money/time to research and engineer the right control system to handle the right gyro control for the measured lean based on data from accelerometers. I can't see why you'd have a profiled (i.e. not flat) rear tyre if it was going to remain upright all of the time. If they did engineer it to lean then I'd love the chance to terrify myself going down the Corkscrew at Laguna Seca on it... |
