Ultimate modification for Loopframe
« on: February 14, 2018, 03:26:23 PM »
Today I installed a flux capacitor on my Eldorado.


I am hoping the handling won't be effected.

Now I'm looking for a " Mr Fusion" to round out the mod.

That's the first time I've seen a flux capacitor used on a loop. It's about time..  :thumb:

Oh, btw.. could you send me back in time a few years? I'd like to do an emendation of a decision or two.. :smiley:

I dunno Doc...
While I applaud your engine-uity and drive, I have to take issue with your claim of it being the "Ultimate modification..."

Clearly, if you think on it a bit - an oscillation-overthruster is the ULTIMATE mod!

 Didn't we discuss this , that positive ground FC won't work , you need the Neg ground version .

Dr. Emmett Brown: [reads the "Save the Clock Tower" flyer and reacts with hope] This is it! This is the answer. It says here that a bolt of lightning is going to strike the clock tower at precisely 10:04 p.m. next Saturday night! If... If we could somehow harness this lightning... channel it into the flux capacitor... it just might work. Next Saturday night, we're sending you back to the future!

Dusty, you're not paying attention.  If you look on the pic, he's rectified it to the field generator.  That makes the flux polar-ambiguous.  Like the inventor, it needn't be grounded at all!  Brilliant!   :cool:

 Doesn't that only work if he has the proper anti-reversionary dust excluder modification ?

If it's in the wind, yes.  This one is cleverly engineered into the slipstream.  So no model-specific baffles are necessary.  No baffles = no reversion factor and therefore no dust.

 So it works like the "Vacuum cleaner Chaparral" then ?

Exactly!  It's the latest thing, and our intrepid hero has used it well.

Did you have to modify the ambifacient waneshaft to prevent parametric side fumbling?

I'm not sure.  Is it normally open or normally closed?  It needs to be N/O unless it's coarse-threaded.

Sorry, but I must point out that that particuar model is the "Quantum" version, so can be both positive, negative, and both positive-negative and negative-positive all at the same time.

Easy-as, and a real positive, negative, positive-negative and negative-positive upgrade all round, all things considered. Victor Kiam would have bought the company if he weren't deceased!

What was it again? I'm confused now!
