Ionic thrust has massive potential to change how we look at propulsion. We’ve used ion engines for spaceflight, and have started applying ionic thrust towards Airflight. I argue, it’s time to turn our eyes to the ocean, and quiet down rock concert we’ve turned the ocean into. The greatest strength of ionic thrust, may be its silence. So, we built a TIE catamaran, straight from the Dark Side.

Thank you to Daniel for his input, and to Erin for sharing his awesome airboat drone footage. I've left a link in the vid description to Erin's drone company, and a link to where you can sign up for Onshape, for free. Thanks for watching!
you have to add small blades to obtain feedback from air generated, and use a pid controller to prevent shortcuts with humidity
Thank you YT algorithm, new subscriber!
Could you use a chemical bag in front of the Ion thrusters to absorb the humidity of the air going thru the thruster?
Electric propulsion has been here for decades in the form of electric motors. They are silent and efficient. The main problem is electricity, there are no ways to store it in huge amounts, thats why they use diesel.
Ok, that's pretty incredible and would be a blast to operate!
Welcome to the first engine that will make Star Trek a reality. Wow.
Isn't it amazing how some problems only become apparent upon testing, and then you've got to work backwards to solve the problem, sometimes ending up right back where you started… It's a LOT of fun, though, straining your brain, trying to think of work-arounds to problems, or evolutions of your design.
Re – Stun gun power source. Why didn't you use a step-up transformer? If you run them in sequence, you could get a LOT more than 40,000 volts out of them.
Or how about a collaboration with ElectroBOOM? I'm sure he's got a few ideas that would get this engine cooking.
Incredible ingenuity, I’m blown away
So… it's two ionic breeze fans on a balsa wood frame?
can you make it slower? it's too fast.
Daniel makes me proud to be Cascadian 🗿🌲
Youtubers innovating! absolutely amazing!!
What would happen if you forced air through the ionic engine like a turbojet? Just like a fan on the front.
I want to see MK 3, 4, 5, etc
and flood the oceans with EMP, like a magnet to aqua life
Hmmm you could just have electric motors for the boats and increase the efficiency of hulls and propellers to quiet the oceans. From a technical aspect the ionic thrusters are sweet though.
I see a bright future for this boat as an RIMZ: remote ionic mosquito zapper.
A completely silent boat? Let's send this to Ukraine, the Russians won't know what hit them 🤭🤭
The Action Lab build a similar engine, but instead using water ions directly https://youtu.be/bPSowtQ9rjI
how to kill all the mosquitos in the lake!
So what would you say to the "fast & loud" people, who think fast MUST be loud?
Wouldn't it be better to make each successive thruster section with a slightly smaller diameter? Then the air coming out will have a higher velocity and it will be more efficient. Also it seems like it should be possible to make a reversible thruster, although that's at odds with making the stages different diameters. Maybe you could give it clamshell (bucket) type thrust reverser like some airplanes have.
I wouldn't want a self-driving car on my street!
Hull needs to be same outrigger style and sit on top of the water not cut through it. As someone already suggested. Ion motors on 360 deg servos for steering
Нужно делать как – безлопастной вентилятор.
Its really weird to hear youtubers talk about places you live near or have been to, and understanding where they are talking about.
due to each stage having diminishing effect of each stage, what about using a single stage of ionic thruster and using the venturi method on the discharge to speed up the air. you can also space out sections of the discharge to interact with each other to increase speed. also to decrease space you could have the anodes perpendicular/at an angle compared to the direction of flow to help while using a funnel to direct air at the anodes, if using a single stage of anodes.
Ok, this is cool. But is this more efficient than an EDF?
Idea: 3d print a sphear with a design for placement of ion thrusters, power and remote control sensors to fly it. Maybe more smaller ports for a collective lift/movement. Due to weight lift restrictions, put the orb on a thin tether. For humidity issues, are any isolators or design methods that can close the humidity contact gap point?
A substance that removes humidity?
Have you considered looking at magnetohydrodynamics?
Hey, lets build a boat with THREE tazer units then climb in the water with it!
A gentle breeze will stop this boat, the batteries would be better utilized powering an electric motor that drives propellers. Interesting propulsion theory, this ion thing, but not practical yet.
could have been 18 mins of footage of boat. :/
Have you thought of perhaps adding a liquid fuel and making the thrusters out of fire proof foam or light weight ceramics, that way when the arcing happens it ignites the fuel ?
You could 3d print the castings for a ceramic fuel burning ion thruster. I once read an article about ion thrusters powered by lasers super heating and charging the air. The B2 stealth is an Ionic thruster that is fuelless.
Check out the new propeller designs that are 80% less noisy, both air and water versions. Quite amazing stuff and swapping a prop (or having one made via CAD and Computer Milling) is far cheaper. Do it the easy way. Inefficiency is loud, efficiency is quiet.
Shaming and quilt tripping is a sign you are old school in your view of public opinion. Most don't care and even more will not care from Shame and Guilt fatigue.
Do it so noise is NOT created. Sound isolate engines in large boats. Proactively cancel out sounds you can't muffle or reduce. All simpler than a new technology which would take centuries to replace current technology.
In the end you're worshipping you knowledge of technology. So be cool but realistic, if that's possible cause, its not that cool, but it works fast, cheap and easy.
the way you embed commercials is the most disgusting thing I've seen. I unsubscribed on the second one. this is shameful and tacky and lame and just…. sleazy AF.
DOES ADDING TO THE LENTH OF THE IONIC ENGINE INCREASE THE IONIC AIRFLOW
