Solenoid Motor Feature Compilation All of the motors from the weekly feature series. Solenoid Motor Feature Video 40 motor playlist: • Solenoid Motor Feature... patreon.com/coilmotorworks Thanks for watching!
Great stuff !! You can see how your ideas and workmanship progressed through the series. I have and recognize a lot of the same parts from years of taking apart old tape recorders and VCR's myself. As a "maker" I would enjoy a series where you go into more detail on how each motor was built and maybe some of the problems and troubles you had and how you overcame them. Keep up the great work ! 😁👍 Lloyd P.
Hi Lloyd. I am planning "how-to" videos as time permits. I will also have a build video which includes a kit that can be purchased. Please note that the order that the motors appear in the video does not match the actual chronological build order. I never mention that in the series. Thanks for watching.
I am currently working on a build series with a limited number of kits that will be made available to build along. I will cover the basics of the operation of the motor so you should be able to build one for yourself. As for information, there are.lots of explanation videos on these motors on RU-vid.
On the simple designs, How do you control the speed or is it just the microswitch controlling the pulse and the voltage supplied controlling the speed? The hit and miss design in awesome to hear running. Regards, Paul
The power supply is an adjustable, 1 to 35 VDC @ 5 A. The hit and miss motors need the 5 A to run right. The micro switch controls the on time. The biggest factor in power output has mostly to do with how close to TDC the switch shuts off.
The flywheels from tape decks work great. If you look at many of the solenoid motor/engine videos on RU-vid you will notice that the flywheels are just a mass and do not always look like a traditional flywheel. I may not be one to finish my motors with a polish but I do need to have a flywheel that looks right.
