Re: Segway too complicated?
the error in the logic of the second link is that adding a 3rd wheel would make the machine stand up on its own
but it would NOT be stable when riding it - the rider would have to maintain balance with with his body to keep from going over the handlebars when stopping, or falling over backwards when accelerating.
the killer ap for Segway isnt that it can stand up by itself - its that it is dynamically stable while going 15mph. you cant get that with 3 wheels.
