Hero Member Posts: 2735	Here's a picture of the hydrofoil board I built this spring to test the monofoil (one wing) design. I also built/tested many two wing foils last year which use a larger main wing up front, fuselage and smaller tail stabilizer wing. The mono foil was surprisingly stable and lifted myself and the board out of the water around 2 mph and cruised around 10 mph behind the boat. We also tried a little wake surfing which was interesting. The board, mast and foil use a shaped wood core covered in two layers of fiberglass then painted and waxed. This winter I plan on building a new canard based foil which has the main wing in the rear and a smaller stabilizer fin up front. I'm also working on a computer controlled/stabilized foil using a 3 axis gyro and waterproof linear servo actuators I built. In theory the foil control should come up to a predetermined height/depth Z then help dampen movement on the X, Y axis.

Group: Moderator Hero Member Posts: 2765	Hi Guys. Not even a day after escaping from hospital I managed to get to the Anson engine museum for our second annual small power engine rally, hence my rather disheveled appearance…. An old friend of mine caught me off guard a little and made this short video for posterity. Hope you enjoy it. https://youtube.com/watch?v=dtXOfzTHgI8&si=supJzOIueuU-8kis&fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR2upJzMCa0EKDN296FVOxFziYXBuCZXiOc8bcsgoCM2DJV6xHu5hpGzB_8_aem_DBHJM0NdU4CvcU1L6CkDQA The engine behind me is a Crossley Diesel of 125 HP. The flywheel weighs in at 13 Tons. The picture is of the Penultimate gas engine as mentioned. Cheers Graham. ------------------------ OUR, window on the world. 50094CB0-03E6-48FE-92F1-6670CCAF6E3E.jpeg (40.62 kB, 240x320 - viewed 471 times.) --------------------------- Nanny state ?

Group: Moderator Hero Member Posts: 2765	Thank you all for your kind wishes, they are greatly appreciated. Sadly the curator was unable to start the big Crossley for me due to a blown gasket on the high pressure air start valve. Anyway, here’s a short clip of 13 tons of Iron coming to life…. https://youtu.be/1HG1eMNuawc?feature=shared Thay. I have restored 3 Fairbanks, Morse engines of my own over the years. They were one of the most prolific manufacturers in the USofA. Cheers Graham. --------------------------- Nanny state ? Left at the gate !!

Group: Experimentalist Hero Member Posts: 2982	Welcome back Graham, do take it easy, you may think you can do things but later you may pay for it, if you know what I mean. Not sure atm if I will be over to visit in the uk, as you know not far from you, but if I do I will let you know. With one thing and the other here I am very busy, 73, and still burning the midnight oil and keeping my head down as we say, regards to Jules.

Even my mum can't tell the difference. I also fine tuned a model on my noggin to create the cover image. WHat a world. AI is here to stay and we better embrace that fact. However it is about seeing the bigger picture too and to not fall in the habitual behaviour of 'enslaving' something that is 'different' from us and see it as a beatifull creation that perhaps even can merge with us one day. But that can only work if it is imbued with something at its core that is unbreakable and unshakeable: Love. Nothing else will work to 'align' it into obeins like the many teach 'leaders' think. It can only 'align' with having perhaps 8 billion worth of people tell it what their version of 'love' means. 8 billion views and perspectives on the same word is the only way to 'align' it with our mutual 'goals'.
