A DC brushless pulse type motor with a neodymium magnet rotor, using a regular coil of wire. It shows how the strong magnetic fields which are setup all around the coil and rotor can be used to driver another rotor, or several. There are no electrical connections to either rotor. The synchronized pulsing of the mag field of the coil interacts with the permanent mag field of the rotor to spin them. Putting a load on either rotor increases the power used, as you would expect. There may be some efficiency gains from using several rotors concurrently. The second rotor spins well at various distances and angles, even at right angles, to the first rotor. There are sweet spots which result in fastest rpms and lowest power used. Launch the Flugelrads!

  • Why not just buy one mass-produced?

  • @Desertphile We have local craft fairs here seasonally. Each craft is unique and broadcasts a creative and individual flavor. We could just buy anything similar, and cheaper, from Walmart probably, however, would you admit there is really no difference in the things, things which promote affection? launch the flugelrads I say!
