At #15-#18 Frank Lee and I discussed an upside down transom-first single-wheel trailer. Could you hold the single wheel back [forward] toward the middle to improve maneuverability? Maybe an electric in-hub motor?

Edit the 2nd: If the hinge line is at mid-transom, the excursions would be minimized and you could suck up closer to the tow vehicle.

*The rotisserie comes first.
*On my 1-wheeler,I went for tongue weight as a guide for wheel location and it ended up about centered under the body.It's awkward utility wise,but it was just a proof of concept project.
*And now that the CRX is back in service I'm eyeing the 1-wheeler a bit harder.I never got to complete it or testing.
*I saw 48-mpg average through three states at speeds as high as 80 mph.
*The carburetor had a vacuum line completely breached and she ran rich enough to leave soot down the side.
*With vacuum restored and gap-fillers,I think I'd see some tasty numbers.
*With your trailer as you and Frank have created it,I think you'd really like it.
