I've also made some progress on the light sensors - I actually designed and assembled these a couple months ago, but hadn't got around...

I've finally found some time today to work on this prototype. I've built a full-sized prototype as discussed above, using 25.4mm ID *...

Maybe I'd get away with a rigid attachment and a nice wide tyre on the trailer, I'm not sure. It was easy enough to include the...

Yeah I've used MyUS.com quite a bit for having things shipped to NZ, but the cost does still add up. They add a bunch of fees to each...

Yeah, sorry about that. I put a ton of effort into testing the CTK-EV-300 vs the Genasun, created a bunch of spreadsheets, edited video...

No worries, you don't owe us anything :) Interesting results though. I'd have expected the Genasun to be a little better steady-state...

I believe it may be possible to salvage the connectors. Cut the tubes 50mm from the bonded ends to salvage as much of the tube as...

Okay, so after spending several hours in Fusion 360, I've updated the model to lower the panels. I managed to get the panel height above...

Yes, it's very productive! I should have posted my Fusion360 model weeks ago, it seems to have prompted a fair bit of discussion. I...

Another thought I had overnight - why not just add a key to the connector faces? i.e. mill a slot, say 3mm deep and 6mm wide, into the...

No worries. They're great panels. It's hard to find semi-flexible Chinese panels that actually meet their specifications, but these ones...

Thanks! Though I was thinking that maybe congratulations should be withheld until I've actually built the thing and proven it works...

Thanks, and I appreciate the consult. This design (bespoke single-wheel CF) certainly seems like it'll be harder to get right, but the...

Thanks for your thoughts. I'm definitely concerned about torsional flexing down the length. It was pretty easy to add bracing to help...

Thought I'd better offer a progress report on this project. I've spent a lot of time learning enough Fusion360 to design the trailer in...
