really seeing which situations are compatible with panography- thought being stuck in traffic was one of them lol....
The four spring pieces shown in the build are pretty much what drove the entire concept. I'm probably not going to build a model with this, but I thought the overall idea was interesting. The major set back with this set up is the fact that the suspension acts on both wheels versus acting on them individually.
Originally built for Brick Madness as a quick build, I recently went back and added steering. Splitting both the front and rear axles made the steering buttery smooth.

This design allows for the front wheels to turn tightly within the fenders of my latest MOC, my BRE Datsun 510. This is accomplished due to how each wheel's linkage moves. It hard to explain (for someone like me) but easy to see. This designed was inspired from study done a couple years ago by a builder named Ricardo Oliveira (www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJOTcZZSy4Y), but I had to modify it a lot in order to accommodate the Ackermann geometry, which I really wanted in my car.
This was the best I could do with the limitations in width and height set by the engine bay of the car. I'm positive the design could be improved upon, and that a tighter steering radius could be achieved, as well. Maybe someone else will take the time to do so. :)
The concept seems straight forward enough drop from the horse, grab a steer by the me horns and wrestle it to the ground, stopping the clock as quickly as possible. Easily said, not easily done In fact, steer wrestling is so difficult that no champion has won consecutive titles in the in the sport since Ote Berry captures back to back crowns in 1990-1991. Timing, technique, strength, and the horsemanship of the hazer, who guides the steer in a straight path for the cowboy, are the primary necessities of this popular event.
