That video looks amazing! I sent you an email recently. I want to make one, and start testing.
Hi Kjell, nice work so far! How is the locking mechanism working here? Have you got any drawings on this?
Hey everyone, glad to see this thread is still continuing! KJELL and Swashdrive - are you able to email, or msg me?
I have finally made time available to start manufacturing the driving system - Fingers crossed "frosty" stays out of this thread, although it was...
Swashdrive, glad you are on board ! Looking forward to seeing the detail of how you achieved this. :) Boston, and KJELL - Thanks for...
Swashdrive - can you elaborate on "it needs to equal the turning change of direction" Rigid fins are good for thrust (if they hold together...
If pitching and rolling kinematics are correct, there will be no pulse effect.
Boston - i have a number of summarized research reports i could PM you. They basically outline the experimental procedures, along with the result...
Mr Efficiency: In terms of further development into the field of propulsion, there is much to benefit from oscillating foils. Ofcourse,...
Boston: - Did you mean "reverse"? I have two degrees, mechanical engineering and business. I research biomimetics. Firstly, lets not argue the...
Frosty - You clearly need to do some research into this area. Conventional propellers are quite inefficient - 70% if you are lucky. Efficiency...
Craig, could you please tell me which angles are you running in that video. Have you done many experiments varying the angles? I could refer you...
Yes, i definitely understand the principles of a swash plate - my confusion was taking the neutral axis as zero, instead of the point to point...
Hi everyone. First of all - This method DEFINITELY can give higher efficiency's than conventional propellers. I have done a lot of research into...
Hi, i was looking at using the wiggle drive for a surfboard application - whereby two fins could be oscillating and a system will be in place to...
