  • First engine video I have made since 2016. This engine hasn't run since it was abandoned in 2015, all I had to do was repair the rotary switch and it started right up. Be sure to subscribe for more engine videos coming soon.

    I like how the “throttle” is setup. That’s really clever.

    Another fantastic yet inefficient use of electricity, now make it do something, turn a fan or lift a ball to the top of a tower setting off a series of events on the way down ...spread some smiles. Thanks for posting.

    oh man when the engine got moving under its own power put a smile on my face!
    hope you are also doing fine among this pandemic lockdown david, cheers and best regards!

    I'm finding things to do in the Coronavirus lockdown - I hope everyone is doing ok.

      Good to see you back at these. your v12 is a masterpiece. Would love to see you make a vtwin big enough to carry a person. I'm working on something now myself. Anyways thanks for all your creativity ingenuity and hard work and thanks taking us all to school!

      We do expect a V8 if you get a new lockdown.

      Can I ask what are advantages and disadvantages of this type motor?

    A new video from you about your amazing engines. Good new !
    I love the way you designed this one. Please, give us more of your creations (my hunger for good tech ideas).😉

    Oh she likes 24 volts...you might experiment with different lubes? My solenoid engines react completely different to various lubes...some like wd40...some like 3in1..some like gear oil...some like silicone. I have one engine that takes all 4, you can instantly hear a difference in rpms when you drop something in the bearings and linkages...and surprisingly some oils will slow down an engine not by thickness but by the kind it is.
    I've seen this engine before and I stole your tape idea on my first engine. Thanks!

    I am Brasiliam, not speak inglesh, eu quero fazer esse motor, porém com imãs como pistão, quando o modor dar meia volta o distribuidor inverte o positivo e negativo, ai se ele estava empurrando passa a atrair o ima. mas como posso fazer esse mecanismo de iverter?

    Olá amigo, belo projeto, só uma sugestão; não seria melhor você colocar Carvão de Liquidificador nesse contato que você tava limpando?? Pois o Carvão é melhor pra ficar deslizando em cima dessa chapinha de Cobre oque acha?? Valeu amigo👏😉

    • @davidrobert2007
      @davidrobert2007  Před 4 lety +1

      Tienes razón, un contacto de carbono sería mejor.

    How about a battery operated solenoid engine used as piston connected to a scootee stator/magneto. Pick up coil as magnetic switch to control solenoid on. Stator with rectifier can charge battery?

    I just use a little bit of contact spray (Kontakt 60)

    i wanna make a full scale solenoid engine for a go kart, just to see how much torque and power it would make would be especially cool if i could power the solenoid on the up stroke and down stroke, then its not a 2 stroke v8, its a 1stroke v8

    Triple the power ! Use a magnetic core solenoid, and pulse polarity reversal with two mosfets.

      I made it with left over scrap metal and wood, with a few bearings and nuts and bolts.
