The Ossie motor

Hi all. Id appreciate some feedback on this. I'll measure current tmrw but I'd love your feedback. Ossie? Are you watching? Id still like to buy you a beer! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IgoonXp1WAA

Hi,  if I click on your link, it says it is a private video and I cannot see it... Possibly a youtube "feature" to play our nerves.

Hi Jimboot,

Some explanation is needed wrt the video...   I wonder what the black multimeter measures on the left side (Digitech type), it shows increasing values and why negative?

I assume the yellow multimeter shows your input battery voltage, right? (6.3V DC)

Your analog ampermeter shows DC input current, changes between 100mA to 130mA, right?

About the coils: you connected the air core coils in series with the handwound coils placed behind them, the handwound coils are bifilar as you wrote. Why did you position the handwound coils behind? hence further away from the rotor magnets.  Did you connect the bifilar coils in series within one handwound coil too?

What is the capacitor value you use after the Schottky diode bridge? I know the gen coils are embedded in the rotor as you showed in IMG_9512.jpg above at post #563 above. Would you measure its DC resistance?  Also would like to know the air coil DC resistances, I assume the handwound coils have only half an Ohm or less.
