Hi
I think  there is or maybe was a front wheel driven tadpod from Russia, the 
S-327. On the page http://www.trike.ru/en/photos.php are some pictures off an 
three wheel drive tadpod trike, S-3 3x3 which could be an evolvement.
But both are steered by handelbars.

Betreff: [python] FWD tadpole for velomobile

Hi All,

I would like make another case for a center-steer FWD tadpole, not sure if we 
can call it a python tadpole when it's realized.  Using the same pivot 
configuration as a bike, the trike could gain another driving wheel, as 
discussed here before in 
2006, //www.freelists.org/post/python/Question-for-the-experts,4.  The 
main requirement is hands-free riding like the delta version (all the time), 
but with improved high-speed stability / aerodynamics in velomobile 
application.  The challenge seems to be making the differential / axle that 
retains the seat rise effect (tilting?).  Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Vi
