The Owl , rotation defeating gravity
« on: March 04, 2010, 12:05:14 PM »
Just playing around.. to see if i can get a rotational force, transferring into direction.

I made a little setup in WM2D and it flies!  ;-)

The large discs with motor weigh 1 kilogram
The small satelites 10 KG

Gravity is on..  And on rotating it lifts off!  ;-)

Oke,it is a mess, and chaos.. But it  flies!

Naturally!

Acceleration is change of mass velocity over time. Acceleration and gravity are the same thing. The Earth is big so it doesn't have to move much. Your flying box is small so it has to move quickly (changes in direction to zero out gravity) to overcome Earth's gravity (since time is invariant, so far  ;D ).

Just make sure your driver's seat is floating free of gravity before you flip the 'On' switch or your body will be turned to vapor  :o

Nice work anyway!

Tnx, i will take that into account, i just hate being turned into vapor  ;D

It's been said that some have observed that certain rock shapes exhibit amazing 'anti' gravitic properties when thrown or slung with sufficient relative and rotational velocities.

Not sure what you mean..  sarcastic? 
Or like the "slingshot" weapon? (as used in the Bible already, and by nasa to catapult satelites)

The slingshot is a well know principle, to capture its force into a repeatable use full work force is what i'm trying.

I don't think I meant to be sarcastic. My point is: Sure, it will work. The problem is the amount of force needed to counter gravity (force). Since the vehicle or device will be small the velocity and changes in direction must be large. Such movements would vaporize any traveler.

It is like Ohm's law. You can get the same amount of Watts with high voltage and low current or low voltage and high current. The difference is you must also consider time.

Try much larger masses of the device and lower gravity. You should see less velocity needed by the moving parts to achieve the same distance in movement.
