I'm having a problem with my driving equipment. Once I get in the training
van, I have to moves my armrests to get the gas/brake and wheel in the
correct area for me to use it. So it would not be very independent. Part of
it is the braces they use to hold their equipment, they are just too big.
But I use the gas/brake on my left. It has to fit between my chair and the
van door. But that doesn't leave much room. Unless they attached it to the
door, but they don't like to do that, opening and closing the door can cause
too much banging on the equipment. I don't want a full size van, but not
much room in a mini.

Do you C5 drivers use a mini van?

How is the equipment mounted?

Can it fold away for non quads to drive?

I'm training with a mini wheel for steering, but was just reading about a
joystick that was just like gas/break, but you push forward for break, pull
back for gas. Have any of you tried both?

So far, getting over 30 mph gets a bit tricky. Any bumps makes my gas/break
hand jerk a bit, causing a rocking motion.

The mini wheel is hard work, as in lots of turning. They said it is meant to
be that way. So that hitting a bump and turning the wheel a little, wont
make you turn into a curb or something. I understand that, but you have to
turn a lot more than I though you would.

 

Thanks,

Greg
