The first Aprillia wheel arrived yesterday, and it looks awesome. The model has been updated accordingly and includes some iteration 1 wheel hubs. We've also connected the tie rods for a working steering system. So far so good, with no interference and hopefully no binding. I've learned a lot about the steering geometry today, and we'll need to make a wheelbase change. If slow and steady wins the race, we're on track to finalize our design in the next few weeks and begin construction in earnest.
