Look Ma! No Engines!

This is my first try at making a mechanical creation and it's pretty rudimentary but I think this is quite legit. You can drive this car forever because the car is powered by a single piston and there's no fuel needed.

How to start the car:

  1. FIRST push throttle to somewhere between 30% to 60%.
  2. Activate 1 to start the car.

Tips:

  1. If you want to go faster, GO EASY ON THE THROTTLE, increase it slowly one tap at a time.
  2. The top throttle percentage where the piston mechanism still would work is 95% which would give a blazing speed of 85 mph (faster than the interstate limit), but you can try pushing it beyond the limit.

Have fun!

    @CeeToTheZee. I agree, I love Grateful Dead, but when you originally were a Jug Band (the Dead) and then move on to rock instruments it's really hard to get into the experimental music like Pink Floyd did.

    @Kerbango Oh definitely. Pink Floyd is one of my favorites. Can't ever get tired of "Astronomy Domine" and "Wish You Were Here."
    Among all the psychedelic bands I'd definitely recommend Grateful Dead above all (although their music does sound more akin to folk than psychedelic)

    @CeeToTheZee I know the song is long, but it's not that long. Also you should try Pink Floyd's stuff from Dark Side of the Moon and before.

    Oh and this.

    I made a few things like this with rotators. Instant torque.
