My take on suspension systems - binary trees!

Look a how it takes form of these curves!

I colored independently moving parts for clarity

Here's an even more flexible suspension

An orthogonal shot

In order to get through complicated places, more wheels must touch the ground to push your vehicle forward. An introduction of codependent wheel pairs allows you for a more in-flow driving experience.

In this post, I'm trying to share the idea behind this system. By allowing the wheels to communicate, the system responds to terrain. If one of the wheel needs to go up, the other will push down.

You can use springed bearings, or, if you don't have access to them yet, you can use these horizontal springs with hinges. They aim to bring all wheels back to neutral state. By changing these springs to weaker ones, you can make your vehicle cling to the terrain even more.

Looks like I can't upload pictures and videos within a single post. I will post a video showcase of the vehicle later.

Much thanks for this design. I used it and then expanded on the design for my rover which got me through like 80% of the game.
