When does this thing come out?

[judgierules]

how does it move does it move. does it move by spinning alternating magnets in the car and alternating magnets in the rail

[guardojose]

@judgierules yes you are correct! a rotating permanent magnetic wheel with alternating N-S-N-S arrangement will attract on the alternating linear S-N-S-N stator or guide way. It is like a non contact magnetic gear. also the wheels this time, instead of rotating vertically touching the ground of surface, this one, the magnetic wheel is rotating horizontally in a non contact attractive alignment with the permanent stator magnets.

where i can buy this ?.....

[Sonyoooo3]

good system but it only consume energy and not giving back energy by using wind turbined.

[gilbondfac]

yes but it's not just a permanent magnet ! but great toy for children

[sktavdr]

straddle-type monorail = track switching = low capacity.

[waren78d]

yes it can run back and forth.

[redfoxsam]

yep, it does run backwards with just a click on the controls, with the same speed as its forward thrust..actually the toy is just a tip of the ice berg, if the toy is a recent success story, so will the real car would be in the next couple of years...
