Hi 25Hz
Oh never heard of sidewinder! Thanks! I am _considering_ building a
tadpole ... and FWD/RWS seems to be ideal -- if the speed problem can be
solved. I knew actually of a rear steered tadpole before, but upright.
Here it is:

You see it quite often in copenhagen. They use a steering damper, may be
exactly to take away oscilations from riding at speed.
