Hi George.
Is your wheel rotate by itself after initial push?

[Georg Künstler]

Hi SK,
this version, about 50 cm in diameter and small weights is not running.
But there are 3 parameters, which I can change, to get it running, maybe i change it in the next days.
First i can increase the count of rollers, second I can increase the internal mass and third I can buildt a wheel with a bigger diameter. Maybe you have the possibility to buildt it larger.

Best regards

Georg

Hi Georg;
Your wheel looks great. I wonder how it would roll on its own if you took it off the axle and just let it roll on a flat surface? Maybe an interesting experiment to try.

Hi Patrick,
i did that already, i made several test, on a complete flat surface, it stops after 3 turns.
When I increased the swinging mass, it stops after 6 turns.

On a nearly flat surface it accelerates to about 1 revolution per second.

From the building size I am able to increase the swinging mass to 300 percent. I am on the way to make this modification and then do the test again.

Best regards

Hi Georg,

Where are the springs now or
