This seems to be unstable, prone to topple on either side.
Designs like this should take into account the position of the centre of gravity.. the vertical line from it should never fall outside the area formed by support points. And it should be below the axis (not easy to achieve), or as close to it as possible. That is why conventional platform designs generally have limited tracking range.
