    wd40 isn't lubricant

    Try to run it on steam.

    Have you considered using dry ice or some other gas producing chemical to supply a constant pressure source (with a relief valve of course!)

    I'd like to see a fail test, hook it up to an air compressor and see how much rpm it can hold up to until it fails. Might wanna swap the prop to a simple flywheel though :D

    This version looks really efficient, based on how little pressure it runs at. With that huge propeller, I don't see why you couldn't get the plane to fly. It looked like it produced a lot of thrust and ran for a ridiculous amount of time. It sounds pretty amazing too.

    It looks like that thing has way more torque than it needs, would you consider adding gear reduction? That could be enough to go airborne

    Can you push one of those engines to its max? like increase pressure until it breaks (in a safe way) maybe using the bike pump while running method while standing behind something?

    TALK TO AvE!!!! He does fluid mechanics for a living and I'm sure he will be able to help you. AvE literally just did a video creating an air pump with an old hydraulic pump that was greased up. I'm serious dude, get in contact with him and he will tell you tons of things that would take you weeks to figure out on your own and all the things he says are funny anyways.

    That engine is oddly extremely efficient.

    Honestly, these air engine videos are the UA-cam highlight of my week. Keep them coming!

    if you add a regulator you can pressurize the bottle much higher and get much much longer running time.

    I want it to be driven to it's max so badly. Please blow one up.

    Now that you have your flexible air feed you could easily create that multi cylinder engine that everyone is so keen to see you do.

    Very impressive, crazy how low of rpm it will run!

    Nice build Tom! I couldn't resist and made a couple of replacement parts for a 5cylinder radial engine and I am actually printing the parts at the moment. I can send you the design files if you are interested!

    I love it that you look/get so happy when something is working as it should. It shows you have a TRUE interest in what you are doing! Kudos!

    Awesome video now getting mini CO2 regulator and make it run off of a 12 gram CO2 cartridge

    but we need multiple cylinder

  • @SirBeauJangles
    @SirBeauJangles 6 років тому +40

    Fistly - Were you never tempted to try running it from a Co2 bulb such as you get for soda syphons? Tiny size, high pressure - which I'd guess would need to be regulated down via a choke constriction to the pressures your plastic components can survive for more than several runs before failure?
