//NOTE: I'm not "completing" the engine, as I have the security that it can't "produce" energy. Besides, I attained my objectives -understanding how it works-, so it's the final construction. Thx for watching!//

· English

This is a construccion of Robert Calloway's V-Track system made of "meccano". The V the magnets look like makes the wheel spin when an outer magnet gets close.

Know that energy may not be taken from here
Idea taken from http://www.callowayengines.com
and video from "Dustaid"

· Català

Model construït amb "meccano" que segueix el sistema de V-Track. La forma que fan els imants fa que la roda giri amb proximitat amb l'imant extern. La roda es mou perquè jo faig força amb les mans.
Idea original http://www.callowayengines.com. Inspirat en el vídeo de "Dustaid"

  • cool but this machine is tottaly not finished... it has to turn without your hands ;) good luck on this XD

  • Awesome Idea. Thanks for sharing it. How to get this little magnets on Cylinder? where can i buy those?

  • for all the people who think a mechanized arm will spin the wheel forever, you got a problem. what will power the arm? and dont say the wheel because your forgetting that all important nemesis to efficiency: friction.

  • dude make a mecanic arm that put the magnet away at the end of the line with the motor motion so you have perpetual motor and not a hand motor. nice job

  • explores the concept of magnetic cancellation to the end and put a damper on that point driving a electro magnet

  • if you mechanize the motion of the magnets that were in your hands, by using a gear system, the machine that you have constructed will rotate forever after the initial first spin.

  • on youtube, look up "V Gate PM Motor" this is how to solve the problems of getting past the gate.

  • @marchetto42 ti parlo in italiano visto il nome... mi stai dicento che il problema è mettere uno spessore crescente sulla ruota in modo che allontani a sufficenza il cilindro (il quale potrebbe poi riabbassarsi per gravita?)

  • I really like the music choice where did you get the track o and nice idea with two poles I'll try two gates and poles on opposite sides may help keep up the good work

  • I know it could work, and to all who do not believe me, I am working on a magnetic piston engine as we speek. It is an experimental machine, two piston, to learn more about just how the magnets I have work. If it works, I will post a video by October the 8th, if it does not, there will be no video on the 8th.
