    Helped a buddy of mind build a “tippy truck” for one of the companies we work for. Teach high-center gravity vehicles with it. We used a forklift to measure things and get the right angles.


    Tell me more about this tippy truck.

    That looks like something that has a lot of potential for fun.

      It is a lot of fun...but definitely gives that stomach in the throat feeling, almost every time! We have trained guys with a ramp that would roll a vehicle over and these troops would have the chance to “feel” that and figure out how to actually get out....we also had a vehicle with an external roll cage and would flip that one over with another vehicle and have the students deploy and engage targets. This one simply has out riggers with “skids” & replaceable “shoes” and allows the students to drive it and actually feel it start to go up......which is when they should correct, but they can take it all the way to the skids safely.

      I don’t know how to attach videos, or I would add one.

        That sounds like a whole afternoon of fun to play around with!
