Cyclone transformation question
Would an in motion transformation from battloid to motorcycle be possible with out stopping? The REF guide shows the pilot stepping of for the bike to fully return to bike mode..just wondering if anyone tried to tackle that flaw..

Flooper. Fried, broiled, or chipped.
It's like eating Chinese.
FLOOP! And you're hungry again.

In 2 out of 4 (Ep 61, 65, 69, 75) Instances I can think of where we see the transformation from armor to bike mode, the answer is no, however in episode 75 "Separate Ways" does show Scott able to transform from armor to bike w/o stepping to the side shortly after the team is trapped in the subway tunnel and episode 69 "Genesis Pit" just after they enter the GP both Rand & Scott are shown doing so.
Off hand I can't think of other examples where the reverse transformation is shown. Of note all instances are with the VR-052 that don't follow the REF Field Guide, but all 3 models are shown following the REF Field Guide.
