The precession caused by the spinning of the main body (housing the spinning gyros) is a greater force than the motors spinning the gyros. this slows the gyros down to such a point that the electric motors have no real effect. The motor rotating the main body is spinning by a physical belt, and once it is up to speed, the precession of the gyros has no net effect on it, especially as the increase in rotational speed is actually slowing the gyros down.

[2012-05-15 08:08:46] worldbridger9 - I think you mean ...I think you mean angular moment of inertia is causing resistance from the induced angle at which you are trying to translate each gyro. My question is: what happens when two counter rotating gyros are on the same axis, does the gyro effect cancel in the casing structure? it does not is my guess.
[2012-05-13 21:04:00] dimovivan - Turn the gyros axis ...Turn the gyros axis at 90 degree.
[2012-05-13 10:08:10] jade77441 - i disagreei disagree
[2012-05-11 05:32:03] Thopter - As the harness ...As the harness speeds up, the discs slow down ( but the relative speed between disc and harness actually increases) but relative to space from the observers point of view the disc slows down possibly to zero except for its eccentric orbit. All the rotation is then in the harness and so the vibration of the motor discs reduces to near zero with the vibration instead tranferred to the motor cans in the harness.
[2012-05-11 05:27:16] Thopter - This effect may not ...This effect may not be clear to most but just because the motor axis and harness axis are not co-axial does not mean they aren't spinning opposite each other and thus cancelling out the motor disc rotational speed about their own axis. If you were to mount a single motor with rotating disc on its output shaft directly above a spinning harness holding the motor can, you would get the same effect. As the harness and motor can speed up, the disc speed slows down relative to the observer.
[2012-05-11 05:21:04] Thopter - Two things... 1) ...Two things... 1) either the centrifugal force of the motor discs is binding the motor shafts like others have said here ( but if they were you should get heat since that would be shorting out the motors) or 2), which is more likely... the rotating harness holding the two motors is rotating oppositely relative to the motor disc rotation and this is cancelling out the motor disc speed in space. The motor discs are actually spinning FASTER relative to the harness, but NOT relative to space.

[2012-05-09 13:45:03] atobokiba - i beliv darotation ...i beliv darotation is causing to much friction id sudgest u use some lubericant or btr yt try levitating it on a secondery eletric fld it will reduce da friction by a great deal nd also pliz do post ur nxt video of dis experiment id like to see hw id goes
[2012-05-05 19:03:05] DANTHETUBEMAN - that is sssooooo ...that is sssooooo dam cool,,, make a bigger one!!!!! OK MAYBE the spinning motors electromagnetic field is braking down when spun that fast. are the gyroes counter rotating?
[2012-05-05 03:33:33] keyproductions100 - try reversing the ...try reversing the polarity on the 3rd motor
[2012-05-04 22:12:15] LouistheHedgehog - Try putting a ...Try putting a scale underneath it next time.
[2012-05-04 22:11:24] LouistheHedgehog - I think this is ...I think this is just a case of coupling moments causing rotation as well as a little vibration causing movement. But maybe I'm wrong, altough I highly doubt it.

[2012-05-01 15:24:09] ninnzbinnz - centrifucal force ...centrifucal force pushes out your giros are on an angle down force on the axles causes too much friction causing brakeing effect. simple playing with the things since childhood.
[2012-04-25 05:34:14] SneakyTweezer - Maybe when you spin ...Maybe when you spin the bottom motor it is creating a side load which is effectively breaking the gyroscope motors. The side loading or sheer force via centripetal force acting on the mass of the magnets the magnets want to bend and transfer that force to the shaft of the gyro motors and stopping them. ...just a thought

[2012-04-08 07:58:22] darwood2020 - spin the center ...spin the center motor the other way and instead of the gyros appearing to stand still they should spin even faster than normal, getting a 'boost' from the center motor's spin
[2012-04-08 07:55:32] darwood2020 - Simple really: the ...Simple really: the gyroscopes reach a resonant frequency with the center motor such that one revolution of the gyros happens during one 'orbit' around the center, IOW or one complete 360 degree arc. Kinda like the moon does with the earth, always presenting the same side towards the center of the mass of the earth....am i making sense?
[2012-04-08 07:30:49] AngryAngel444 - you have them set ...you have them set up to go the wrong direction... thats why thats happening*
[2012-04-06 12:53:56] PopeFrankyOfficial - Man you are awesome ...Man you are awesome! but i really need you to get that electronic scale!!! so we can actually se even a slight reduction!! keep up the great job!
[2012-04-03 05:31:04] noahwashere - I think its because ...I think its because the centripetal force counteracts the spin of the gyroscopes, the gyroscopes being at the ends of the plank probably increases the effect as well.
[2012-04-01 23:16:57] toamaori - i thought for a ...i thought for a second a just witnessed a monumentus discovery in antigravity hehehe but it was you pulling the wire... have you thought about putting it on a scale? any effects would cause the weight to go down
[2012-04-01 19:46:51] timothyrmauch - Forgive the fact i ...Forgive the fact i didnt have time to read and see if someone else already posted what im about to suggest, that said i think youve got an excellent experiment with only one minute flaw. The motor at the base of the apparatus simply spins in the wrong direction, which in turn has cancelled out the gyroscopic effect with one of its own in the opposing direction. To gain a cumulative gyroscopic effect simply turn the main base motor in the other direction.
[2012-04-01 07:27:38] phillyvinilli - Maybe this been ...Maybe this been answered but reason the gyros slow down is because rotation of motor housing is countering its own rotation. Not explaining it well as I'm tired now but hope you get what I mean. The magnet discs rpm stays constant but when you spin the base the motors are mounted to the mounts themselves are spinning too so the sound you hear indicating a reduction of rpm is only the differential between them. Magnet rpm might be 5000 Base rpm 1000 The vibration you hear will be same as 4000

[2012-03-25 04:32:16] ugotboost - If it was me I ...If it was me I would hard wire the batteries in the center. The spinning could cause the batteries to not make the connection.
[2012-03-24 20:03:18] sirloin869 - centrifugal force, ...centrifugal force, redirected back on itself by an opposing ellipse. think it's called Coriolis effect
[2012-03-24 00:12:44] ActiveStorage - you need a digital ...you need a digital scale. put it on a scale and see if the mass changes.
[2012-03-22 00:36:18] sk8pkl - I THINK I ...I THINK I UNDERSTANDED YOUR PROBLEM SIR. hmmm the rotation occurred in the center must come from the outer rotation. I dont know if u understand what i mean, but the inner spin must depend on the outer spin.... i guess... and thats why the inner spinners stop spinning. maybe cause they should spin the other side, but anyways, with magnets, u can do it.
[2012-02-25 21:43:23] NOCNOTCAUGHT - I am no physicist ...I am no physicist but is seems that the added centrifugal force of the rotation of your platform would make the ceramic gyro magnets much heavier so that the driving motors are simply too weak to overcome that force during rotation. I would try moving the gyro magnets to either a purely vertical rotation instead of at an angle. Also counter-rotate the gyros so they cancel their own tendency to rotate the platform they share. Fascinating experiment! Thanks for sharing and please never quit!
[2012-02-22 10:27:40] xerxeese - great idea, very " ...great idea, very "Eric Laithwaite" concept, keep up the great ideas and works!!! with people like you we might achieve diagravitic effects!!!
[2012-02-21 13:07:23] TheMusclepig - Nice work dude. ...Nice work dude. Don't give up.
[2012-02-21 00:36:50] mysticalsoulqc - the gyros turn but ...the gyros turn but its the main motor making them turn once you turn it on(i think).have you tried putting a unbalanced weiht on the gyro's. i wonder if the gyros can cause the main motor (bigger main motor )to turn and make a motor genertor with it.
[2012-02-14 23:50:59] 22sklen - Once you have ...Once you have gained such a high speed/velocity of spin the gyroscopes simply are not able to facilitate the lift you are looking for. There is a next step which I am anxious to know about.
