MaNEP maglev model train

This model train flies above the magnet rails, thank to the superconductors it contains.

i see how it works w/ the liquid nitrogen but how is it propelled forward? or is it just given a push?

[MaNEPar]

Hello Chessie, yes on this version you just give it a push but we have made another one with an automatic impulse which works until the superconductor warms up and the model lands naturally.

hi, can u send me the link or this exact clip, I promise I will reference you properly.

[MaNEPar]

Hello Palomita40, I'd like to know who you are or work for, first, OK ?

[boeingguy223]

where did you get the liquid nitrogen?

[MaNEPar]

We make it ourselves :)

[Angelus12308]

You're cooling the magnets so they become superconducters,because then they attract each another up to a certain distance,and then stop,so there is a certain amount of space between them.

Am I right?

[D3at4not3]

What would be a great video/model would be if you took the Flying model version of the Back to the Future Delorean and converted it.

[Shomas23]

how many m?agnets did you use? what kind? how many rectagular ones and how many square

[smittythesmith]

I think I understand the levitation but what keeps the train on the track? How can it turn?

[brtos]

How much does a superconductor cost?

[brtos]

What magnetic material is the rail made of??? And how did you arrange them when you think of the poles???

[infusion3sinaxis]

Where do you get the superconducting magnets?

@Chessie9009 Magnetic Attraction +/-  or (-/+) forward and for lift of magnetic fields of same pole either +/+ or -/-.
