Title: Looking at the Rodin Starship Coil
Post by: CLaNZeR on August 30, 2010, 12:12:31 PM
Thought I would make a Rodin Starship Coil and have a play.

Here are a few video links I made this weekend.

Thanks Yodi

One more, explaining the simple switching circuit.

Wow its like "Outer Limits"!
A beauty too!
Thanks for sharing your hard work Bud.

Its a prototype TransWarp coil! :D

Interesting as always ClaNZer.

New 24 point Rodin Starship coil all wound

Will do some tests tomorrow.

Really enjoying the vids! I've been looking for more info on the principle. Any recommended reading?

Few More Videos


First 5 tests on 24Pin Rodin Starship Coil

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VehHJMYaPM




By using two windings and having the current run in reverse directions, you can get rid of BEMF all together. And the Rotor still spins!

Another Config that shows no or little BEMF

Small load and wiring coils in series drops current in half but RPM remains the same..

I'll be winding a torus tonight. Going to hook it up to my ossie motor

WOW is right - quite the staggering implications across all realms if it all goes forward as it seems he is envisioning.  I always believed in the power of the torus and especially the Rodin style.

Nice work on Clanzer's setup too.  Does the Rodin starship coil create a toroidal field also?

Could anyone hypothesize how a similarly wound coil would perform when:
- 9 pins are used
- 1-2-4-8-7-5 winding&stacking pattern for first wire
- interlaced with a second wire 3-6-9
- also a coil wrapping the stack of, say 30 winds as above, going up the 3 axis, down the 6, up the 9, down the 3, etc.
- then a simple coil wrapping the 0 axis.

Too random?

Few more videos


CLaNZeR adding Magnetic Bearings to the Rodin Starship Coil Config
Thought I would have a go at trying the magnetic bearings. Again a quick bodge, but next step it to get it mounted in a solid fashion and see what sort of high speeds we can hit

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-3RtEPfYgg


CLaNZeR trying Magnetic Spheres with the Rodin Starship Coil
The Magnetic Spheres turned up. So testing them out.

CLaNZeR Rodin Starship 85mm Coil and Axle Rotor Part 1
Looking to see if a an Axle motor using the Rodin starship coil produces much BEMF. 85mm Coil made for this one

Doing the LED test and pickup Coil on new Axle config

CLaNZeR Dual Switching the Rodin Starship Coil
No Reed switches, No Hall sensors, just pulsing both windings opposite ways. Using a Pic Chip to pulse and two SSR relays to switch each winding

Please forgive my ignorance, but what does a Rodin, or indeed the Rodin Starship
coil actually do?

I've been a bit obsessed with the rod in coil. It drove the osier motor well. I have now wound four coils and have been messing around with them as speakers. I have also wound one tetrahedron coil. Im putting up vids here http://YouTube.com/jimboot2 a few folks a heck of a lot cleverer than I am  are working on a firing circuit and there is a google group. Also do a search for Randy powell on yt for more lessons on the maths.

Hey Jimboot,

Nice to see you around again,

How's melbourne weather.

How close to a selfrunner did you get to ?

Have a good one,

Penno

Hey Penno, the weather is better than Sydney.. :) 32 deg on fri, 12 on Sat. I love melbourne weather. I got a long runner but not a self runner. I'm really over reed switches :) I had a neo sphere spin up to ear piercing speeds last night on 50mA so im focussing on the Rodin.

Hey Jim,

Just starting to warm up in Sydney.

Nice to hear you're getting results with rodin.

Hope you'll put up a video soon.

Penno

p.s. btw, where are you getting the spheres or tube mags that are diametrically magnetized. I am having troble locating aussie supplier on ebay or local supplier?

I couldnt find any locally either so I just ordered from K & J Magnetics.
Everything's a bargaing given the AUD atm :D
