You can be pretty tricky to build it on a budget. Dave Cloud, Cedric
Lynch, and Jerry Dycus have all built examples of very efficient
vehicles on tiny budgets. They may look a bit funky, but it's a
prototype! :-)
I am thinking of using a tandem recumbent bicycle with 20" wheels.
Tandem? A 3-wheeler?
This should support 750watts of solar.
Have you thought about how to keep the PV panels from acting like a sail
and tipping it over? A friend of mine built a PV recumbent trike, and
had problems with wind.
