A self-moving pendulum...

.....due to an alternating energy transfer,between gravity and inertia,you can find on net ,at :

    This is an apparently "self",beyond any doubt:we made a pick up and...time is the limitation.

    The simplicity of this test (mass,arm,flywheel ),is so attractive...to stimulate our thinking and imagination,for a real "self-acting" motion.

    The "classical bet" is the same :fall down,on a long arm  vs. rise up ,on a short arm ,between the same gravitational levels (height...from down to up).

    As usually ,the test is first,the lesson is after...

        All the best! / Alex

.....for a simple hinged arm ( remind the Middle Ages designs...) , playing short arm due to gravity and  long arm , due to (rotational) inertia , in the top point , as you can see at :

yes Alex:

here we go:

does movement along iso-gravitational focefiel-lines needs work `? Yes of course but hwo much in comparison to the potential energy achieved ?
