Hello listees Perhaps Daryl's whacky thought has some merit. But, rather than using hydraulic pistons or some such,how about linking the pivot angle to the seat. By that I mean have a seat with a recline angle and or height which could be changed on the fly. As the saet recline was raised- for increased stability the pivot angle would also change in the direction which would give better stability. Seat connect by mechanical linkage to the pivot. Would the extra complexity and weight penalty be worth the variable stability?
