- No engineering done on the LifeTrac III
Safety Concerns
No structural engineering analysis has been performed on the LifeTrac. If you choose to replicate this product you are doing so at your own risk and with this understanding. We will be performing analysis soon and will post those results as we get them.
There is also an email to OSE Europe mailing list describing some concerns about LifeTrac safety of use, and points out possible issues with: Frame, Steering, Brakes and Roll-Over Protection.
General Specifications
Current Needs
- Reorganize the main R&D page to follow some sort of structure and logical flow so it can be referenced and used for future versions
