It certainly makes sense that it'd be possible. Got a rigid chassis and a "noodle" chassis handy? Seems a pretty quick test to see if it's easier to tbone a noodle chassis.


I'd also be curious to see how it deals with omni directional drivetrains (mecanums or 33/78 style omnis). Guess I should get drawing FBDs.
