THE AERIAL SCREW: There's a Reason da Vinci's Helicopter Was Never Built
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 лют 2022
- Welcome to another episode of Trailmakers! Today I am attempting to replicate Leonardo da Vinci's aerial screw. It was essentially a pre-helicopter design that was never fully realized. There might be some reasons for that.

About Trailmakers:
In the toughest motoring expedition in the universe, you and your friends will build your own vehicles to cross a dangerous wasteland. Explore, crash horribly, use your wits to build a better rig, and get as far as you can with whatever spare parts you find on your way.
Welcome to the Ultimate Expedition!
Journey over grueling mountains, hazardous swamps, and bone-dry deserts on a distant world far from civilization - it is just you, your fellow adventurers and the amazing, jet-powered hover-buggy you built yourself. Explore, crash your vehicle, build a better one, and get as far as you can with whatever spare parts you find along your way.
Trailmakers is about building very awesome vehicles and machines, but you don’t need an engineering degree to get started. The intuitive builder will get you going in no time. Everything you build is made from physical building blocks. Each block has unique features like shape, weight and functionality. They can be broken off, refitted and used to build something new. Individually the blocks are fairly simple, but combined the possibilities are endless.
Expedition Mode is the challenging campaign mode of Trailmakers. You are competing in an off-world rally expedition with only a few building blocks to get you started. You must build, tinker with and rebuild your machine to progress. Journey through a big world, overcome deep gorges, angry wildlife and dangerous weather to progress and find new parts that will juice up your machine. The world in Expedition Mode will test your survival skills and ingenuity.
Sandbox Mode is where you want to head for an unrestricted, sandbox, vehicle-building experience. Here you can build anything you can dream of, and play around with it in the world of Trailmakers. It is a great place to test out crazy machines, and experiment with the physics engine. With tons of different blocks, hinges, thrusters and interactive vehicle parts - the skybox is the limit.
Trailmakers is even more fun if you play it with other people. Build cool vehicles and compete in mini-game modes with your friends or other Trailmakers online. Build a helicopter, send it to your friend, and shoot them out of the sky. Put two seats on a tank, and let your friend control the turret. As we get further in Early Access development Expedition Mode will also be adapted to multiplayer.

Da Vinci would be so proud that his creation actually works in a simulated world inside the personal thinking machine of a guy called Man of Scrap. And that people can watch a moving and talking picture of his creation actually working on their own thinking machines.
yes he would be so proud

I honestly wouldn't mind a dual series where Scrapman recreates things he's built in Scrap Mechanic in Trailmakers and also the other way around.
Yes
But with the collision particles
Ouch that looks like Spain without the S
I think you can get this thing to work better by adding vertical fins to the lower part, increasing the drag when it rotates. This in essence allows the rotating servo to push against the air to rotate the top part. (angular momentum is conserved as the air (in real life at least) would be pushed back)
"Everything is possible when you have turning, yaw, and roll" - not scrapman
Edith: Thanks for the likes (I think this is my most-liked comment).
Hey scrapman you should try to make the Antarctic snow cruser a really cool vehicle which turned out to be a fail because the prosecution was really bad so it's perfect for you.
Kosmo already had his hand at it, i don't think scrapman would do the same now
Theres a paper “plane” design where its just a tube with fins all around the rim on one end of the tube
And you’d throw it while giving it a spin and it should fly
Quoted “plane” because its not really a plane, its just a tube lol
Note: Look up “Flying paper tube” for reference
I love it, when you build weird stuff from real life 😅
I love that we're gradually learning while watching him play
On the PlayStation port (I assume for Xbox, too, but I don't own one), The achievement named "Leonardo Da Vinci", which requires to be in the air for 60 seconds without power cores, and it shows an image of the aerial screw, sadly no power cores would probably mean a glider, instead of an aerial screw.
Upgrade time: 2 counter-rotating devices should be stable aside from the stability of the sails. And you should need half as many sails so maybe that would be more stable.
Ive been subbed since the very beginning and every time I am in awe of what you come up with to replicate.
But your account is only eight months old! I’ve been subbed for longer than that and I haven’t been here for anywhere near the beginning of the channel!
@@Datboichannel there are old accounts and sometimes people dont sign in (kinda sucks people think that way)
I suggest something called the "Pedrail wheel" it's super cool but also very weird
.
its like a suspension wheel
I think a pedrail wheel would be cool to see
Lmao your comment got stolen by a bot, I hope scrapman sees it tho
@@ilovehumongoushonkers well i don’t see it so i assume it was removed
Yet another awesome video in this great series. Liking this concept of videos very much!
I've watched a lot of your videos, really enjoy them. Honestly IMO, most intelligent youtuber when it comes to building impossible crafts and extremely knowledgeable about real life physics and mechanics. Big ups bro, love the effort and dedication.👏

Scrapman:being impressed with his own creation that was not even his idea
Game character:"I CAN'T HOLD! IT I WILL THRO-(threw up)
I honestly was gonna suggest this last video scrapman, so its nice to see you're doing it :D
If your trying planes, try the one of the first plane, the "Wright Flyer"
He's already done that build
@@eternal60214 i think nah, he didn't build it

Really liking the series of recreating historical or little known vehicles
Yayyyyyyyyyy! You should do a series of all of da Vinci's machines at some point!
Try building one cylinder that is powered by thrusters to go one way and another, making a propeller to turn. Try using this cylinder mechanic to power a car or plane in trail makers.
Or just build two screw rotating in opposite directions.
you should make the DaVinci tank, its basically a pyramid that has around 8 cannons and flaps on the top, and spins while shoot, making it basically a minigun!
Really like watching your stuff recently scrapman, i was also wondering, have you checked out space engineer yet? it seems to be pretty similar concapet to the games you play so you could enjoy it, Just a suggestion though, keep up the great work!
A long time ago in brick rigs I made a series of 'tornadoea' which were effectively spinning screws, that games build grind allows for different axes but in trailmakers you could make a series of layers that are plus shaped with a servo between each layer, and then as they spawn they rotate by like 45 degrees or so, then adding more servos to angle the sails, this making a corkscrew shape
I'm really loving this series
Would be awesome to see a rotodyne
Very Nice! Well done, and it’s kinda bright.
But…
“Mom, is this a star?”
“No, it’s Scrapman testing his flying screw!”
Maybe you could add pistons from the base to the bottom sail to add more stability to the corkscrew
Didn't think you'd pull it off...
Nicely done Scrapman👌🏼
Great vid! Liked the educational bit at the start
Fun Fact: There are drones being developed using the aerial screw type of prop. It is show to be comparable in stability and power to propellers of a similar threshold with the possibility of being a lot quieter and more thrust at lower RPMs, along with some other advantages - though its major drawback is its weight of construction.
The fun bit is that it generates lift in an entirely different way to most conventional methods, so a whole lot isn't known about it at this time and they haven't yet determined an ideal shape for them.
Leonardo's fighting vehicle, Da Vinci is smiling upon your great achievements in the ways of science and exploration.
Finally returning to great original content scrap man is known for
That was the first thing I made when sail were added. Add some counter rotation to the bottom and you can stop the spinning. Attach a compass on a servo to the counter rotation and you can control you facing. Add some shifting weights and you can sort of control tilt to give forward/back control.
This actually wouldn't be all that hard to modify to get working in Trailmakers. I can think of two different ways.
One, tailfins or sails extending radially outward from the base would provide a lot more rotational drag, putting much more of the power into the air-screw.
Alternatively, any even number of them connected to each other, with corkscrews in counter-rotating pairs would work, though then it'd just be a primitive quad-copter.
You could also make one with two concentric corkscrews on concentric axles with gearing to make them counter-rotate, but... I think that'd far outstrip the materials available and understanding of mechanics of the time.
There is this device kids played decades ago. It is lost to history now. It has ball/disc like pointy bottom and a lever on top, if you press it down it spins until it looses its momentum due to time or collisions. Could be fun to make something like that and see how fast and how long you can make it spin.
I think this is the mechanism you were describing. ua-cam.com/video/YjyZ5Og3kUs/v-deo.html "tin plate spinning top" is what I searched for to find it more examples in images then videos.
If I remember correctly what are you actually talking about, I saw such things like 10 years ago or even earlier, maybe something like this is still being sold somewhere I didn't check, but greeting from Russia
love these creative projects!!!
Try making the French "Marquis' Multiplane" of 1908. It was originally a flightless machine, but seeing how you tinker in trailmakers, i think you can pull it off and make a flying version.
Also, you could use magnets to try and 'grab' the sails in a certain positions like the transformer you showed in this video of yours.
ua-cam.com/video/uJ2OCZs_Vzc/v-deo.html
I wonder if a sort of flywheel inspired contraption would help with the counter rotation (maybe based around a set of free-floating servos?)
you should make a mechanical horse (in SM) with a lot of power so you can make inefficient old carriage designs
That, or Karl Benz' motorized carriage which led to the invention of the car.
Very enjoyable series!
You tried to make actual tank track in TM?
Also more DaVinci stuff would be neat
Adding a rudder sail (and front counterweight) to the base may reduce the counter rotation and give steering? Awesome build all the same!!
Hahahahaha i suggested this! Thats... great man. Love that you listen. :)
you could add big horizontal sails to the base to counteract the some of the conservation of momentum like big air brakes. I think it will slow the base down and allow more energy to go into the corkscrew sails
Hey scrapman sticking with the rotating theme could you try and recreate one of those twisting seeds that fall from trees and glide gently to the ground.
You should make a car that moves with peristalsis movement like a worm! I would love to see it! love the vids keep up the good work!
I'd love to see you recreate the Arctic Snow Cruiser!
Challenge idea for you. A sail powered aircraft that's essentially a large Frisbee with a propeller of sails underneath, that you pilot by walking around on top to tilt the direction you want to go.
Lover your videos scrapman your so creative and have so many Ideas,thank you :)
Aerial Screw - The precursor to one of the most widely used inventions in american households, the Ceiling Fan!
(running the Aeriel Screw in reverse, anchored to the ground, would create a fan shoving air upwards. Attached upside-down to the ceiling of a room and you have a ceiling fan using this machine and method.)
Try making a quadcopter with the aerial screw as propellors. Some researched just did that a few days ago and showed it working, even saying that it might have some benefits over tradition propellors.
Yess! I totally commented about da Vinci's inventions!!
Different kind of contraption but also to get stuff in the air, something i saw recently and made me think "would this work in building games?", look up something called SpinLaunch, while you cant go to orbit it could still be a cool way to travel.
Might be more useful in scrap mechanic survival btw, both for quick travels (if you can land in water) but maybe also for flinging crop crates to farmer?
This was a really cool recreation, nice execution of the design.
I feel like because you have a 2x2 wide core you could use pistons attached to the last sail and go down or up with them. Or even off of the side of the core rod with a trailer or free hinge to adjust for any angle to make it a little more stable but at the same time maybe not with the connection points idk.
Ps. Techblox devs are looking to add small jet engines and simple sensors next update and there was the memory logic bits last update.
Check out the main battleship guns on Space Pirate Harlock. A proper turret needs 2 axis of rotation, but in space/in the air you need to fire in all directions, so one of the axis of rotation is the “waistline” of the spaceship.
I bet da vinci would like this video. (Great looking build :) )
keep this seriess going!
what you could do is attach those bars to the shaft that attaches to the corkscrew and push the bar instead and add a lil spinny thing on the bottom so it so it doesnt spin bottom
You can also add wings to the base facing in the opposite direction, so it slows it down with drag, and any rotational force left in the base gets turned into lift. I've done the same in Besiege many times, and actually created some perfectly stable flying machines that way.
fun fact: way back when da vinci was alive and in similar times, copyright did not exist so inventors to safeguard their works would put small flaws with crippling impact in their creation so that only them would know how to build it properly
also many projects were studies of functions and proof of concepts
that’s actually really smart
Oh wow
@@apersunthathasaridiculousl1890 necessity is the mother of all invention, lack of copyright is the mother of all flaws
How does that work with music, Art, or books?
Also, if it’s 1 small flaw, it be easier to crack the secret designs
@@glauberglousger6643 don’t let people hear the music
You probably have the best community out of every youtuber
You could probably put wings on the base facing sideways so that the base wouldn’t spin as much
I just realized how good trailmakers' physics engine is with the monospinner and the aerial screw,
and the fact that it's so optimized that I can play it at my potato pc
imagine leo's face watching this and getting mad at himself cuz everyone is mad at him cuz he did not know what he was building
also can you build something called Amphibocycle?
me and leo sure have something in common
What do you mean "you have something in common"?
@@triciamichalk4476 cuz i dont know anything about what i'm doing
@@someone-cf1ol understandable have a great day
@@triciamichalk4476 you too
This man is just pumping out content right now
7:10 Steven he's dad on his way to school:
Imma pretend i didn't see that
“When I went to school I walked uphill both ways”
“Physics wasn’t invented yet”
this should be a series
Maybe when you attach sail to the sides bottom platform, they could create enough resistance to stop it from spinning?
I have an idea try putting sails on the lower area so it would put more resistance on the bottom then it wouldn't lose any momentum or have it sort of spinning itself too
I'd love for you to try to build a strandbeest. They are wind powered walking machines.
This machine is so holy it's raining gold
So impressed!
Now you can build da vincis "flying machine", the one with bat wings. And you could combine it with his parachute design for emergency.
You could have used an anchor to attach the bottom. Maybe it would make it less glitchy or make it work better
Wow. For trailmakers that's an awesome replica
You should build a Da Vinci tank. That would be cool
So I can see why the historically-accurate creation sparked- the lift created by the sails pushed them up against eachother since you didn’t have them all connected individually to the bar in the center, instead creating an almost spring-like design that the generated lift interacted with.
Rq I’m not an engineer lol, I don’t know how to use proper terms to explain this. I’m just trying to put what I see into words
You should try the kugelpanzer spherical tank created in ww2 for scouting
I'm curious to see the corkscrew props used for a quad-copter. Perhaps having 4 of them will allow for more control, or at least a more steady lift off
What about da Vinci’s “Fighting vehicle”? It’s essentially a 360 degree tank
I like that he thought it wasn't possible, it worked, then he managed to give it control of altitude
one spiral on top, a ton of vertical wings up keeping it up, in-line and stable against the rotor spiral, two parts, top-down
add a spike under the base, then its a floating spinner toy
You could try to build the McDonnel XF-85 goblin, a very small fighter plane designed to drop out of the cargo/bomb bay of planes, it was labelled as a "parasite fighter" as it was harbored inside of another aircraft and deployable.
That's actually pretty dope
Try to make working tank tracks, even if it might be really hard, the end results would be really cool
Tried and it's a pain
I also tried it to make the russian kharkovchanka and it was really glitchy
@@antoniolozic1517 i tried a ww1 tank, but the threads were huge and broke all the times. Collisions in trailmakers are pretty approximated and glitchy, but it's because they're made to make possible to have air drag and body damage in the game, compared to scrap mechanic who doesn't.
Make just a normal vehicle, but it's been named "Dinnerbone". If you don't get the reference it's from Minecraft. If you name something "Dinnerbone", it flips it upside down. So like an upside down boat or car or smth
You could anchor the bottom of the creation with a piston and a anchor block that attaches to the sail
The original model was connected for stability and avoid collision.. if you connect the sails to the rotating platform, it may work. Still not sure about that
I love how Scrapman is explaining his jokes to people
8:17 Woah woah woah woah woah woah woah, That reminds me of the Japanese Anime Scenes "Ore ore ore ore ore ore ore ore.........." Anyways even I was surprised when I saw that thing lift of for a little time especially when Scrapman explained that it isn't supposed to fly.............. 🙂
Anyways I was thinking after watching this video It might be easy for you to make a Sail Beyblade!....Right? If it is easy then pls make one cause even it would be fun to watch it...........👍🏻
On the topic of bizarre, please try the "peugeot moovie concept car"
What about putting an anchor block at the bottom of the sail. have it on a piston or rotating arm to extend out and attached to the central column once the sails are fully extended. would that make the sails none adjustable but more stable. Also you should use this sail idea and flip it horizontally and see if you can use it to propel and land car.
You, kan and kosmo should do a challenge where you create vehicles for each other then do a race or derby. you can't rig the entire thing it still has to be driveable
You guys need to do an ornithopter air battle for the next multiplayer Monday
I think trying to make the BV 141 would be fun. It's and asymmetrical German plane from WWII. It could pose an interesting challenge when trying to get it to fly well.
If I'm not mistaken, your modified version has a state, where the corkscrew is in the Buildmode-position. Wouldn't that mean, that you could brace the bottom of the corkscrew against the main mast, too, and move the brace up and down when extending the corkscrew, perhaps via pistons?
I play besiege and this accurately looks like the flying block from beseige. Trailmakers meets besiege!
I think you could potentially use a piston on another servo thing to stabilize the screw part. I don't have the game, but I think that's a decent solution.
I would have attached the sails to the central shaft at inervals that line up when the sails are angled.
What is you put a piston(s) on the senter pole that is connected to the end of the sail/propeller so it's (hopefully) more stable and it can still move up and down.
You should try to make a sailboat that stabilizes using a hiking system in Trail Makers. #33
put sails on the bottom platform so you create some drag so it flies better
