Detail

Requirements Analysis

We will compare this to the User:Patri/Dumbbell, since it is very similar.

  • Safety - Truss support may be stronger than a single spar.
  • Comfort - Almost all space is on top platform, which means it is in the sun, which is nice.
  • Cost - Truss support may be cheaper than a single spar.
  • Cargo - Bringing cargo into external strut area may make it easier to hoist.
