A new turn

snowmobile

It’s been more than a year since the first and only flight of the Dreamfighter trike. And this year was difficult for me and for my project. Continue or not, that is the question! In the end, having changed a lot of options, I came to the conclusion that a trike with a front engine is not needed by anyone. I built my own, flew and enough. If there were enough resources, one could certainly build an outstanding thing, but it’s difficult to climb this mountain alone without the means. In the end, as an artist, I am interested in the process of creating unusual devices, and the machines themselves interest me more from the outside than from the practical.

So, when I expressed my thoughts about the Dreamfighter, it’s time to say about the Dreamfighter snowmobile. Since the case even cracked, I decided to give him a second life in a different quality and guise, the more that I have one idea that reminds me of myself every time, when I go to the coast of the Baltic Sea. In general, there is an idea, there is a broken body, three good wheels and even a motor, although not very powerful. I had to sell my Thor 130, but in the winter I had a Rocket 120. Although it is weak, but able to push the snowmobile with wheels on an even surface. I started to make wheeled snowmobile Dreamfighter, but this time the motor will be behind them. Outwardly they become like an old racing car or plane. I must say that this project attracted me and already something began to loom. At first I cut off the bottom of the case and welded a metal frame. I also made the steering wheel and the front fork. It remains to understand the motor and the axes for the rear wheels and then it will be possible to slowly collect the device. Since I can work with it only on weekends, the project is moving rather slowly. But at the same time he brings me a lot of joy and again I see the meaning in the creativity that I do!
