All right all you pro's. Let's see if you can make a trike. Here's my half assed schematics. The labels are suppsed to say , tire magnet, and steering. Good luck!

you think people have probelms with their bits flipping with 4 wheels. Wait till you take one wheel away. There would be no stability unless you put stabalizer wings (like some peopel have done) or something.

What does the magnet get pulled towards? Steering makes your coils into temporary magnets which push and pull the magnet in unison to one side, making the wheels turn. How would your solid axel front wheel benefit from a magnet simply sitting behind it?

The blue things in the pic are supposed to be steering arms that are connected to the magnet sides with swivel connectors, and at the axle the wheel spins on.

why don't you just have two drive motors in the back? The trike can use tank steering, and the wheel in the front provides friction so it doesn't do a 180 when you turn......

I like it. Good thinking!  But my skill is not up to par.
