[@bellowphone]

That machine is purely a thing of beauty.

Crazy cool contraption ⚙️😎👍

[@vdel9036]

Really, the best working steampunk style creature i've found on youtube this year. A pleasure to see. Congratulations ! Enough power to run a rocky area ?

[@danquigg8311]

An amazing build!!! Reminds me of the Erector Set I had ~60 yrs ago - but, on 'steroids!'

[@rogueart7706]

Don't give up.

[@termywayne]

Excellent

[@A3Kr0n]

Sounds like a Harley and they can be pretty hit and miss, too.

[@After_Tech_Industries]

I kind of want to see this concept but with the drive mechanism similar to what is used in diesel electric locomotives, aka generator + esc + dc motors...

Reallycool! Is it RC?

[@Stirlingkit]

[@oceanchaser]

Do you mix oil with the fuel

[@kimvibk9242]

Mesmerizing!

[@SteampunkSammy]

Awesome job! Looks very impressive are the onboard electronics for RC etc powered by the engine also?

[@lukahutinski9075]

my guess in no. looks like there would be a lipo for the 2 or 3 dc motors and rc controll. it could be that there is a alternator type device there (fast spining dc ith voltage reg.) but id drive such a device of the flywheel

What is the song?

[@krzysztoftkacz]

Zajebisty 😀

[@olivvapor4873]

Thank you for sharing, this is really inspiring ! This is a wonderful model ... Could you please share a link to proper fuel for that eachine engine ? ...

[@electraglide1976]

I use" zippo lighter fluid"

[@olivvapor4873]

@@electraglide1976 Thank you ; I know there is an oupsie with "gasoline" or "fuel" : different meaning regarding country of purchase ; Zippo fluid should be more universal ! and I am able to get it in France :-)

[@bellowphone]

@@olivvapor4873 Zippo fluid is Naphtha, which should also be available under that name, in hardware stores as an additive for certain paints. It's the same stuff. Technically, it is an extremely light oil; evaporates very quickly, and takes fire at a lower temperature than gasoline.

[@twistedyogert]

Did you cut all those gears yourself?

[@electraglide1976]

no, most of them are meccano gears...

[@twistedyogert]

@@electraglide1976 Its still an impressive piece of machinery.

[@twistedyogert]

@@electraglide1976 Where can I get a meccano gear kit?

That is brilliant excellent work love it

[@electraglide1976]
