    Aerospace Engineering: Lift Mass 1ft-1.5ft Off Ground

    I do not think it was outside the OP question, The link I provided shows acuall data with thrust of 55 lbs with 27" prop at 7,000 RPM, which is relevant to the question above, as it shows feasibility. BTW I'm not suggesting he buy a turboprop, or turbine engine.

    Aerospace Engineering: Lift Mass 1ft-1.5ft Off Ground

    My apologies, you didn't curse, just the words were used in a manner that I thought it was a curse.

    Aerospace Engineering: Lift Mass 1ft-1.5ft Off Ground

    No need to curse. Example I linked, just demonstrates that many pounds (>40lb) of thrust can be generated with an smaller prop 27" and under 10k rpm with the proper torque, as that was my only point. btw the permits you talk about are at --> http://www.modelaircraft.org/documents.aspx...

    Aerospace Engineering: Lift Mass 1ft-1.5ft Off Ground

    All depends on torque, rpm, and prop type, on http://www.jetcatusa.com/spt5.html it's specs are Thrust: 55 lbs with 27" prop at 7,000 RPM Though this is using 27" prop, also I would research more on this subject. If you ask questions in a logical a manner, and check your grammar (so that...

    Handheld 10W Laser: Possibilities and Concerns

    This is correct, original poster could be facing "criminal negligence" if used in a improper manner, basically anywhere outside, or in a room with people.

    Handheld 10W Laser: Possibilities and Concerns

    Yes you can, see my previous post. BTW please if you do an laser project, please Google "SAM FAQ laser guide" and read all the safety parts. And at Minimum buy (ebay) laser eye protection wear that matches your laser diode range.

    Handheld 10W Laser: Possibilities and Concerns

    How efficient is bad to you? Modern laser diodes (multi watt) are have greater efficiencies than 50%. http://www.repairfaq.org/sam/laserdio.htm#diotoc In fact, high power laser diodes - those outputting WATTs of optical power - are without a doubt the most efficient light emitter - not...

    Age of universe and time dilation.

    Something that always got me thinking about is time is relative to the speed of the object (time dilation) how can we determine age of universe. Here is an example of what I'm thinking. When the big bang happened, imagine if certain parts of the big bang it got flung at different speeds...

    Designing and Building a Tesla Coil: Tips and Experiences

    I recommend asking people who talk about Tesla Coils all the time, and have good experience at it. --> http://4hv.org/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewforum.php?13

    Variable frequency drive for high speed spindle

    Cool to see another CNC person here, I've did my own X2 CNC Mill conversion recently. The "008" of "SV008IC5-1F" says it's 0.75 kw time to upgrade to get those faster IPM speeds. btw have you tried CNCzone.com before, people there are good at answering CNC stuffs like this.

    Where to Find Thermocouples for Power Generation in Stores or Online?

    If your looking to making power, grab an peltier. For example take a look at http://www.make-digital.com/make/vol15/?pg=125 And you can buy them on ebay cheap http://shop.ebay.com/?_from=R40&_trksid=p0.m38.l1313&_nkw=tec+cooler&_sacat=See-All-Categories

    Capacitor charging loss (Not the two capacitor issue.)

    lol a little long winded, but I get it! Just confirming, the springs are attached to the slower conveyor belt, and attached automatically to the package as they are dropped, when they slingshot forward at 2x speed the spring detaches, and package lands on 2x speed conveyor belt. Since the...
