Awesome wheel chair

http://www.tankchair.com/

Reminds me of something off Terminator 2.

This looks like a good project to turn into a remote controlled chair for mischief.

Indeed it does. If I saw that thing riding around by itself I'd be scared to hell!

That is THE chair.

Let's see some paralympics in those bad boys.

where do u get them! thats hardcore!

That actually looks pretty unstable and badly designed; the centre of gravity looks way too high and if you were to try and ford a river in it or something it looks as though it would just fall over, or at least tip you out. It does look total badass though.

If I was paralysed I'd still want stomping legs like ED209....20 SECONDS TO COMPLY....MWAHAHAHAHAHA.....

It looks like it's for ground use though... not water, hense the big tank like tracks :D.

Besides... there is handles to hold onto if things get rough, or you could just attach a seatbelt.... or two.

Edit: I can't even get on the site anymore, I get aload of random characters.. (It's not a language). Looks like something you would see if you opened an *.exe in notepad.
Edit2: Nevermind, works now.

Depends on how much the tracks/base weighs tho doesn't it? If it's bottom heavy (which it must be or it would just fall over all the time) then you just need to be belted in :)

My disabled m8 would love it - although i'd be seriously worried about having my toes crushed lol

It does actually look like there is a seatbelt (Just looked at the pictures), although I'd want something more secure than a lap belt.

Only the US by the looks of it.


Edit: Only just noticed too.. what are the metal parts for? Rocket attachments? :D

All that is missing is 2 ball-bearing mini-guns underneath each each "arm rest" to make it the ultra chair.

Check the videos... no problems with water :D

I just get a load of garbled rubbish from that site...
