Recumbent Simulator

This OpenScad application is intended to make blueprints and 3D model of a recumbent bike, trike or quadricycle with full geometry and steering. It does now have a module to create a segmented fairing, in the same style as aircraft aluminium fuselage

It is mainly thought for human powered cycles, but you can also use it for larger motorised machines.

See the 'Images' directory for output examples.

It simply generate the blueprint and no calculations (except trail and wheel flop) are done.

Main evolutions since first issue are possibility to create a fairing, more accurate rider, tilting delta trike and mid-drive motors

It uses OpenSCAD as 3D modeler engine - Use only 2021.01 version and NOT snapshot/nightly -
