Introduction: The Simplest Mendocino Motor Which Is Made of Expanded Polystyrene
The Mendocino motor is a solar-powered magnetically levitated electric motor.
Step 1: First Thing You Need:
- Solar panels: http://ali.pub/21josw
- Magnets for stator: http://ali.pub/21jpuf
- Magnets for rotor: http://ali.pub/21jqoy
- About 40m of winding wire 0.2 - 0.3mm: http://ali.pub/21jnt4
- Expanded Polystyrene
Step 2: Making a Base
Pieces of expanded polystyrene are glued together
Step 3: Making a Rotor
I wind every new turn on the other side of the guide, you can wind 10 turns and change the side, it will be easier, the wire is thick enough to wind it comfortably.Coils are made in one direction and contain 110 turns.
