Dune Bike - Dune Chaser


Recommended Posts

Levelord, your decoupler-iBeam-RuggedWheels suspension system is very impressive. I examined your bike then built my own 4-wheeled(oriented outwards like a standard configuration) rover to take the decoupler suspension on a test spin on Kerbin. It went down a mountain at 45 m/s and survived, easily. Twice, in fact. I may end up utilizing the decoupler-iBeam setup for future rovers given the sheer durability of such a setup, since my own previous rovers tended to flip and explode at 24 m/s.

Of course, strapping the little rockomax probe stack engine on the back and firing the vehicle up to 60+ m/s was not healthy for the thing. The main body survived mostly, but 3 out of 4 wheels were shot. I see why you used an ant engine instead of the little orange one for your bike, given the results on my car.
