Is one-handed steering possible with the double helix?

Absolutely! It is very easy to steer one handed. A truly awesome stroller. I highly recommend it!!!

Only if the terrain is flat and straight. In my opinion it's tough to steer with one hand due to the weight and size of the stroller. I find it's tough with a double Bob as well, so I don't think it's the stroller, but more so the fact that you're pushing two children.

No, as far as I know. Haven't tried it, but as with most wheels, they are set in a fixed direction, as opposed to a track ball which is omni directional.

No, not really. Just goes straight. Maybe you could steer with hands or something but if that is important would look elsewhere.

No. They would both rotate at same rate at same time. You would have to invent a brake mechanism that releases the second device to rotate after the first device completes it's rotations.

No, the rotation of the steering wheel is limited to 90 degrees on both sides. I do not recommend this for that purpose, it is more of a beginner's wheel to play with. The dead zone for straight driving is small as well.

Thanks for the clarification. I didnt know if that was the limit or not, i assumed i could at least get some directional control but i guess not.

no, it only goes one direction. I have one and really is a pleasure to use.

I hold it in my right hand to my eye and only focus with the left. I'd say you would need two hands. It's a simple twisting motion on either end to focus

Yes. You could switch them around if you want - they're closed systems and the levers have bilateral symmetry.

I wouldn't suggest it. It would be tricky even if you can use your left leg. You can't really hold the wheel and hold the gas and brake at the same time while also shifting with your right arm.

Yes, it can be operated with one hand while driving. It really is hands free, unless you need to make adjustments (increase/decrease volume, turn on and off) while in use. However, note I've purchased two and the one I just brought does not work well. The party on the other end can't here what I'm saying clearly. I will have to purchase another one (different model)

It is multidirectional, but works best pointed in a particular direction. The instructions come with a website to help find the best direction

Not in the way you're asking. I mean, I'm left-handed and I can use it fine, but there is no way to assemble it so that the crank is on the left side. You could hold it upside-down or backwards and crank it towards you, as well.

Effectively, yes. The machine goes forward by default, and you control the steering by applying break to each wheel independently (break levers are on each handle). Squeeze the left level to slow the left wheel...which turns the machine left.

Yea you can adjust the steering rate. You can adjust so much with this transmitter reciever setup but just one thing to think about is I bought the docking base and hook it all up set everything up to my liking and made about three short runs up and down the street and the transmitter fried. I had to send it back to traxxas to get it fixed. The transmitter worked great with out the docking base though.

It doesn't have a rudder. The steering is accomplished by applying differential power to two rotors (nothing you would need to explicitly need to bother with, its just how your left/right turn actions on the transmitter are translated into...), and elevators.

Yes, you can easily do both with one hand. I've been using it often for a few months now and very pleased with its performance. Very light but strong and stable also.
