How to Make/Build a Lifter or Ionocraft

A step-by-step guide to making a lifter/ionocraft, a small, very lightweight, triangular ion wind propelled device powered with a high voltage and substantial current power supply. This uses an aluminum foil skirt for the bottom electrode, a 30 gauge (30 AWG) bare wire for the top electrod

How Ion Propulsion, Lifters and Ionocrafts Work

How ion propulsion in lifters, my Star Trek Enterprise model and other ionocrafts work, basically how ion wind works in these types of devices. This shows how the electric field between a sharp object connected to a smooth object cause movement in the direction of the sharp object and an i

NASA’s Evolutionary Xenon Thruster (NEXT) | Gridded Ion Thruster

A gridded ion thruster uses electrical energy to create, accelerate and neutralize positively charged ions to generate thrust. The discharge chamber is responsible for the creation of ions when neutral atoms and electrons collide while the magnetic field containing the electrons increases

How Do Ion Engines Work? The Most Efficient Propulsion System Out There

People always ask me why we’re stuck with chemical rockets. Seriously, exploding a bunch of hydrogen or kerosene is the best we can do? Good news, there are other, exotic science fiction-sounding propulsion systems out there which use electromagnetic fields to accelerate atoms, allowing

These Planes Are Propelled With Ionic Thrust

In this video I show you how to create ionic thrust using electrodynamics to create air flow with no moving parts. I show you how ionic wind is produced in order to make ionocrafts and lifters fly. I also talk about ion thrusters used in space. I test if they work in a vacuum. Get Your Ex
