Definition:[fle-bust-en]A gimmick of a combustion motor using of flea joints to power a circle in a spinning motion capable of reaching an est. 20,000 mpps (MegaPixelsPerSecond).
Glitchs:
Out of the hole:The "piston" flies out of the chamber.
Glicth'd:the flea joint is stuck in the top block.
Please post your reviews/ideas!
Oh and lol the motor can move text...(seriously look at it) _________________

This could be much more efficient if the walls to the piston were as wide as the rectangle on top. _________________ Got a problem? I'd be glad to help! |

You got it right. If you want some help, pass me an editable copy and I will show you what's wrong with it. I really like the idea of the flea being on the side instead of directly above though, I think that's an improvement. Hopefully soon I will have the best improvement ever though... xD _________________ Got a problem? I'd be glad to help! |

Lolz. It doesn't it spin; it just oscillates fast enough to give the illusion of spinning. _________________ ______Member of________

That's because the flea isn't far up enough for the piston to reach it's peak. _________________ Got a problem? I'd be glad to help! |

Right, and it would be a more fluid motion if you had multiple pistons, like a real engine. _________________ ______Member of________

Here's the problem: One thing I know about flea joints is that if they're not mounted to a fixed object, they lose a lot of their punch. So it'll take a good bit of tweaking to make a mobile fleabustion engine that's faster than a thruster or rotating joint powered car. So, who's up to the task? If I get more time to mess around on IB today, I might try it myself, though I admit that I'm not much good at flea joints.
BTW, I still think rutgersemp has the best working model. It has 8 'pistons', so you know it can't just be oscillating. The wheel darn near flies off its rotating joint. But it's stationary!
Commentary: I sure wish we could merge threads together like I could at the RuneHQ forum. We have enough threads about various reciprocating engine models to make a super-thread about 'em. (But wait...Isn't that how the bomb thread got started? ) _________________ _Former Member of_

Nah...that's spam bait for sure. How about, "Experimentations With Various Reciprocating Engines."
