[python] wheel flop vs pedaling induced steering

Hi Listies,

The other Dirk has added a page about the pivot angle and his influence to the 
wiki:

http://en.python.data.he-hosting.de/Pivot_Angle

What should follow this is a closer definition of wheel flop and pedaling 
induced steering. They do have in common that the front part start to wobble. 
Buzt what sets them apart? Isn't wheel flop also related to the wheight of 
the front? Does the a<b distance matter as well, besides the pivot angle?

See this image http://python-lowracer.de/pics/TT%20Juergen%20Maier.jpg
from Jürgens Modification page: http://python-lowracer.de/modifications.html

i was going to dig through old posts and prepare an additional graphic for 
illustration.

Should we handle the two in one wiki page?

Why do we call it PSI, when we talk about pedal induced steering? Or do i mix 
up things here?



Regards,
DirkS
