red box is the hot section. Blue part is the water filled cooling jacket. The displacer cylinder (the long thin horizontally mounted cylinder) runs through both the hot and cold sections. Air from the displacer cylinder expands into the upright power cylinder and then as it cools is sucked back i...

This kid needs a hobby.

Lovely!

It's an "Annular Wing". Invented a long time ago.

Beautiful work.

Bravo!

rotaries were used in the first world war...radials dominated in the second world war.

Simple. Regular cars weigh about 4000 lbs, and when you do an electric conversion on them they weigh about 500 lbs more. So the range is like...20 km. (10 miles.) In order to make a good electric car you must re-engineer to make the vehicle weigh less and part of that is making it smaller to redu...

Bravissimo!

dumb.

i'm white and i disagree. Womens is ALL GOOD...whatever their hue....

@dwnrety1 You are describing a radial. The rotary was conceived as a lightweight air cooled engine which had a fixed crankshaft and the finned cylinders rotated around it thus providing the cooling. The only drawback was the large mass spinning which caused all sorts of precession effects. The r...

@13andincradiblycutt It isn't that they don't understand physics. The use of gasoline is a cheat. It's childsplay to take such an energy dense substance and make a vehicle go with it. The real challenge is of course to get a vehicle to move about using a much less energy dense substance like comp...

Gyro plane. Traditionally an auto gyro has the engine mounted up front as a tractor configuration.

Well...looked like a true airshow display classic. Pilot pulls up too steeply, doesn't estimate his height properly, turns in mid-air and finds out the hard way at the bottom of the dive that he needed about ten more feet of altitude to have properly completed the maneuver. Lucky they lived.

Thou shalt never fly when it's gusty!

For the love of your life and the piece of mind of all of us, douse that thing in gas and burn it. Your spar is poorly designed and even more poorly made. Since it has no cap strips it will fail. There are no drag/anti drag wires. Your plywood is of poor quality. The hardware is dangerous lookin...

Der VROOMBA!

Awesome! I have a rowing bike with the same type of steering setup. It is very similar in size to your machine. I have found through painful experience that you might want to think about changing that center pivot axle to one which steers the wheels individually. I was bruised for weeks af...

Sad. This airplane uses spoilers to roll as the '52 does. Not a good idea to fly a spoiler equipped airplane at such low speeds and high bank angles. My heart goes out to the families.
