It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

A quick google for 'tricycle differential' returns a bunch of products that are probably in the right power range and would do the trick. Still need hand braking to actually achieve steering.

I like to think of it being only connected to one wheel with the other one free, so you can spin around in circles until you do a barrel roll. It's the only form of euthanasia approved by insurance companies in the US, trademarked funthanasia.
