well actually it is intended as a shuttle just not a jet plane space shuttle.
Jets use a lot more energy than a rail because gravity makes it more difficult to raise the vehcile.
However here is the thing....
what you do is have the ground based electro magnet.. and you have a conveyor system that builds torque with counter wieghts to the transport.
When sufficient speed is built the counterweights drop... each counerweight represents about 100KG so for a passenger load of 30 people itd be about 3000KG... but what you do is balance this so that when the counter weights are dropped the Lighter than Air gas propells the shuttle upward..
The navagation system will move rudders to steer it to the destination over traffic. Meanwhile the guidance electro magnet locks onto the vehcile to secure it for a safe landing on the landing rail.
There ya go
I don't see the benefit of the robot man but building robot legs onto it so it can pick itself up off the rail and walk off the track for whatever reason would just rely on some pretty good hydraulic supports. Neat marketing gimmick though. |

BTW that wasn't my original idea.. but other than the theme parkness of it.. I think it'd work
Its a little like the new electromagnetic cannons replacing the steam cannons. The difference it the electro magnet guidance system to bring it back on target - like a garbage dump magnet crane of sorts but directional
(of course you prolly don't want loose change in the path....)
The benefit in here is in dense urban areas, there are no areas to put in new rails... so why not just avoid the ground completely...? |

Wow. I don't ever think I've seen the combination of audacity, ignorance, and outright stupidity it takes to come up with your posts. It's as though you are the embodiment of such a trifecta - that without one of the ingredients, above, you might not even post this .
Yes - it's an ad hominem, you psychopathic idiot. |

The more I think about the more I don't think it can be trademarked or patented.
Paypal me 20 bux and I will tell u the idea!!! |

So what area would the patent be cncerning because in some areas you can patent some completely outrageous things. I might be mistaken (but i ont think i am) but there are dozens (perhaps hundreds) of perpetuum mobile patents out there and everyone knows (should know) thats jsut bollocks. So ask yourself, is your thing more insane than a perpetuum mobile? Even if yes, considering youre in the US you might still get the patent. |

When you pitch the idea to your investors make sure to lighten the mood with a video presentation

Tell me how I can steal it!
I was eating some good food and there was a guy and his attorney next to me. They were planning out a patent or trademark on this idea. I heard the idea and i want to legally steal it before it is illegal to do so. It's a business idea involving technology and it could be cool
I also tipped very well.
No, it is not gravitational computations on flight simulators!!!!!
So tell me how to legally steal it and i will cut you in. |
first get an attorney; have him sign over his legal rights; the guy's idea you want to steal
take said idea
and go to hell |

Get over the insult already man, it was a joke 1 joke. Take things in proportion - you are already married with kids, how can insulting your penis size possibly be considered an ad hominem?
IN retrospect I'm guessing you probably have an average size penis - and being totally high can have effect to cause shrinkage. Totally understandable. |
