I've attempted a rotating camera using a RC sail servo and testing knob, but ran into shake problems due to an unstable mount approach.
Haven't revisited it. You can see it in this Blokart video I made.
The mount is visible at 1:50 https://youtu.be/eUaEY6kjQTE

MG Supra ......... pulling KiteTrike
a testrun in 8 Bft is not ideal, but i wanted to try anyway
unfortunatly the kite, a PKD Joy 2m2 snowkite got damaged in the 1st run.
and a bigger kite was for me too gusty and risky.
not much footage to edit but just enough for a movie.
better luck next time..
Damage is minor. I have the same one from wich i can use the bridle for parts so it can probably get a second life,
and that song sticks like gum in your head so i had to use it.
Pretty remarkable ride.
How is hot launching in those winds? With a regular bug, it is preferable to point yourself downwind but with the crab not so easy?
the advantage in a Crab is that when you hot-launch in any wind you allready leane into the side-bar,
as in a regular buggy when you point downwind you need to brace yourself much more to prevent an eject.
(because than you have a real hot-launch hahahahaha....)
that is also when you go 'off-road' wich i did many thimes in a regular buggy, when pulling yourself up on a
sanddune or hill you risk an eject especially when you stall halfway and loop to come further up.
In the crab sitting sideway's you allready lean max to the sidebar and is looping to get further an higher up not an issue.
the same as switching direction in high speed as you see in this video: click here and see at 3:50
the moment i've slowed down enough, trowing and turning the crab, trying to keep maximum momentum and facing a downwind-position i can loop all i want
because it will pull me to the sidebar.
and when the speed picks up i correct steering to the perfect downwind-course for max speed.
ofcourse you know all about that Redsky
found my old tandem-bar.
need to weld another size downtube on a different angle on it
because it was made for the Libre V-max wich is now turned into Crab 1 & II..
Recycling 2.0..
then i polished, lubricated and painted it and it is ready for action!!
i photoshop my own buggy for the complete set-up.
the version with the midi-tyres has the old Libre V-max axle wich is mounted closer and lower
to the re-bar frame under the seat.
and it's also possible to ride it with the full-size frontfork and midi-rear. that's gonna be fun..!!
oversteer to-the-max.. but anything for fun!!
i gave the yellow tandem in the previous post to a friend of mine
because riding whitout a roll-bar isn't working for me because of a bad back...
so kitebuggy tandemseason is officially open..!!
because THIS is so much fun!!
still hoping to raise that PB of over 52 MPH
i set years ago on Les Hemmes FR.
uhhmmm that would be a record set on Fano or Romo Denmark, and that were from what i can remeber well over 20 PL-buggy's.
but that was over 20 years ago and i can't find anything about it online...
