 Hello Stefan
Quote
do you let go the weights just at 6 o?clock
and then they just slam into the ramp,
are then reflected by the spring and then lock again
nearer to the axis ?
   Yes that is the idea,the weights have wheels or trucks that they ride the ramps on,and my concern is the delay, friction and timing of this event. My hope is since centrifugal force doubles in relation to rpm that a window will open (I think higher rpm will favor this)when the Lower ramp angle, spring tension, and rpm can create power on the lower side.  Maybe it would work better if I allowed the spokes to hinge one direction at the outer hub just a few degrees so the wheel can rotate more freely during the 6 o'clock events (see picture). And then maybe I could tie the secondary power source to the wheel if needed.

Maybe can you try it with heavier balls ?
Maybe with steel balls or with a non compressable ball ?
      I did try using a Superball in a test and it was much more responsive and quick, I was not able to get it to bounce in the path that I could film it but wow much much better.
      I am not sure what will be the best weight size or amount of movement to allow in the prototype. I was thinking of using roller blade wheels and bearings for the weights. Do you see any application for permanent magnets?
  (maybe at the upper ramp)
    Thanks for your thoughts

  Thanks Free Energy
    I have a ton to learn about these programs.

it looks like it will work! we shall see.

instead of having it role/ride the ramp, i think it would be better maybe if it just bounced off the spring like around 5 oclock or 5:30.

  Hello
    Yes FreeEnergy I noticed in the tennis ball test that the release point needed to be at the 5 to 5:30 point to get the BDC impact and return. I believe that when the preload is set correctly on the lower spring ramp that the weight may only dwell there 3 to 4 degrees. Also it will depend on how far the lower ramp is below.  These are the details that are over my head and I just don't have the engineering background to understand. I believe in the concept due to many nights lost sleep but I don't know if I have the ability to give the monster life. ;D
   Thanks
