i think all you need to do is to be able to ( cheat the center of gravity mechanically)in my model to the right.

[Joel Wright]

I came to the same conclusion Jim about 6 months ago.I've realized that gravity does'nt care how you shift the center of gravity away from a axle.

Impossible to say when, but I remember to be a teen when I read to a matter in Readers Digest, about PMs. Projects for many others stuffs was a constant in my home, due to my father's work and from his 2 brothers, since before I born.
I don't belive that the number of years one search about PM and FE will not send the garanty that he'll be the great inventor. It will send, anyhow, a great experience about where to go. I can feel together to many in this board and others, to the affliction for to reach sometime, same time full of sureness and doubtness, and without find a single way of any help.This is or sure a way of life.
Well, you heard this before: I'M SURE THAT MY AVALANCHEDRIVE WILL WORK GREAT, I'm alone, up to now, but I hope in GOD to be alive for to prove I'm right. It's so evident! (I'm now still 60.)
Up to now I found none that could send clear arguments against it.
I mean arguments that do not hurt an IQ of two digits.
This challengeof mine is a duty, a service and a spiritually deep sport.
An inventor is the guy that just can't avoid the invention.
There are projectists, builders, technicians, specialists, developers and many ''inventators'', and all them are plenty of will and have their right place in this novel for the change and evolution.
''Inventators'' are not inventors, because they have too many things to block to them and they falled in the trap of modelling and thinking over the models and pieces they did or are doing. I'm sure the mind, imagination and intuition building are mandatory and must preceede strongly to any model. This is a hard clue to find and I would like to be able to help to all, if I could. Maybe someday.
As ever, you don't need to say anything about my words.
Very interesting has been to learn about human behavior during this life.
Thanks and regards. Murilo SP mach/31/04

Been looking at two versions: first where the weights follow a balanced, neutral keel (no bottom weight raise) with the weights only thrown out of kilter between 12 and 3 o'clock. Preliminaries show wimpy torque, but most likely not destructive;

the "Wankel" version, all rotary, eliminate all throws, thus no chance of a "thrown rod".

Poor skeptics. It's no longer a question that the overbalanced wheel can exist, it's now how does one control the avalanche, and in that aspect Jim is correct in his statement.

[Joel Wright]

Hey murilo do you have any kind of fly wheel attached to your avalanchedrive,or a means to store inertia?I got a design for a fly wheel that increases power the faster it spins.

[murilo]

Joel, hello.
Please take a new look at my diagram.
When cummulated heavier body tends to fall, step by step, vertice by vertice, hold by the peripheric hooks at the weel, the question is how to BREAK to the system, and so, the wheel shaft is the right place for a break or, better, a charge. Any how, Joel, pls show me to this fly-whell you know.
Thanks very much and regs. Murilo SP apr/01

No problem murilo check out Joel Wrights Idea in the community buzz section of this site.
