THE AERIAL SCREW: There's a Reason da Vinci's Helicopter Was Never Built
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 сен 2024
- Welcome to another episode of Trailmakers! Today I am attempting to replicate Leonardo da Vinci's aerial screw. It was essentially a pre-helicopter design that was never fully realized. There might be some reasons for that.

About Trailmakers:
In the toughest motoring expedition in the universe, you and your friends will build your own vehicles to cross a dangerous wasteland. Explore, crash horribly, use your wits to build a better rig, and get as far as you can with whatever spare parts you find on your way.
Welcome to the Ultimate Expedition!
Journey over grueling mountains, hazardous swamps, and bone-dry deserts on a distant world far from civilization - it is just you, your fellow adventurers and the amazing, jet-powered hover-buggy you built yourself. Explore, crash your vehicle, build a better one, and get as far as you can with whatever spare parts you find along your way.
Trailmakers is about building very awesome vehicles and machines, but you don’t need an engineering degree to get started. The intuitive builder will get you going in no time. Everything you build is made from physical building blocks. Each block has unique features like shape, weight and functionality. They can be broken off, refitted and used to build something new. Individually the blocks are fairly simple, but combined the possibilities are endless.
Expedition Mode is the challenging campaign mode of Trailmakers. You are competing in an off-world rally expedition with only a few building blocks to get you started. You must build, tinker with and rebuild your machine to progress. Journey through a big world, overcome deep gorges, angry wildlife and dangerous weather to progress and find new parts that will juice up your machine. The world in Expedition Mode will test your survival skills and ingenuity.
Sandbox Mode is where you want to head for an unrestricted, sandbox, vehicle-building experience. Here you can build anything you can dream of, and play around with it in the world of Trailmakers. It is a great place to test out crazy machines, and experiment with the physics engine. With tons of different blocks, hinges, thrusters and interactive vehicle parts - the skybox is the limit.
Trailmakers is even more fun if you play it with other people. Build cool vehicles and compete in mini-game modes with your friends or other Trailmakers online. Build a helicopter, send it to your friend, and shoot them out of the sky. Put two seats on a tank, and let your friend control the turret. As we get further in Early Access development Expedition Mode will also be adapted to multiplayer.

Da Vinci would be so proud that his creation actually works in a simulated world inside the personal thinking machine of a guy called Man of Scrap. And that people can watch a moving and talking picture of his creation actually working on their own thinking machines.
yes he would be so proud

"Everything is possible when you have turning, yaw, and roll" - not scrapman
Edith: Thanks for the likes (I think this is my most-liked comment).
I think you can get this thing to work better by adding vertical fins to the lower part, increasing the drag when it rotates. This in essence allows the rotating servo to push against the air to rotate the top part. (angular momentum is conserved as the air (in real life at least) would be pushed back)
Agreed. Or even somewhat counter angled.
or add a screw going the other way on the bottom par, no clue how to make that look good. But should make it fly more easily since theres less wasted energy?
Or by adding more weight further out on the base to make it harder to rotate.
This was my thought as well, top vs bottom the one with the least drag would spin the fastest.
I'm just happy by the ideas to improve the design even more
Hey scrapman you should try to make the Antarctic snow cruser a really cool vehicle which turned out to be a fail because the prosecution was really bad so it's perfect for you.
Kosmo already had his hand at it, i don't think scrapman would do the same now
I honestly wouldn't mind a dual series where Scrapman recreates things he's built in Scrap Mechanic in Trailmakers and also the other way around.
Yes
But with the collision particles
Ouch that looks like Spain without the S
Theres a paper “plane” design where its just a tube with fins all around the rim on one end of the tube
And you’d throw it while giving it a spin and it should fly
Quoted “plane” because its not really a plane, its just a tube lol
Note: Look up “Flying paper tube” for reference
Try making the French "Marquis' Multiplane" of 1908. It was originally a flightless machine, but seeing how you tinker in trailmakers, i think you can pull it off and make a flying version.
Also, you could use magnets to try and 'grab' the sails in a certain positions like the transformer you showed in this video of yours.

I love it, when you build weird stuff from real life 😅
imagine leo's face watching this and getting mad at himself cuz everyone is mad at him cuz he did not know what he was building
also can you build something called Amphibocycle?
me and leo sure have something in common
What do you mean "you have something in common"?

I suggest something called the "Pedrail wheel" it's super cool but also very weird
.
its like a suspension wheel
I think a pedrail wheel would be cool to see
Lmao your comment got stolen by a bot, I hope scrapman sees it tho
@@ilovehumongoushonkers well i don’t see it so i assume it was removed
Ive been subbed since the very beginning and every time I am in awe of what you come up with to replicate.
But your account is only eight months old! I’ve been subbed for longer than that and I haven’t been here for anywhere near the beginning of the channel!
@@Datboichannel there are old accounts and sometimes people dont sign in (kinda sucks people think that way)
Scrap man is scra vinci
ska vinky??
scrapida la menavice
LOL
fun fact: way back when da vinci was alive and in similar times, copyright did not exist so inventors to safeguard their works would put small flaws with crippling impact in their creation so that only them would know how to build it properly
also many projects were studies of functions and proof of concepts
that’s actually really smart
Oh wow
@@apersunthathasaridiculousl1890 necessity is the mother of all invention, lack of copyright is the mother of all flaws
How does that work with music, Art, or books?
Also, if it’s 1 small flaw, it be easier to crack the secret designs
@@glauberglousger6643 don’t let people hear the music
Really like watching your stuff recently scrapman, i was also wondering, have you checked out space engineer yet? it seems to be pretty similar concapet to the games you play so you could enjoy it, Just a suggestion though, keep up the great work!
First to say first
Nope oh lol they edited there message
First to reply to my own comment
First
@@DarK-mo4qb first
Upgrade time: 2 counter-rotating devices should be stable aside from the stability of the sails. And you should need half as many sails so maybe that would be more stable.
If your trying planes, try the one of the first plane, the "Wright Flyer"
He's already done that build
@@eternal60214 i think nah, he didn't build it

Try building one cylinder that is powered by thrusters to go one way and another, making a propeller to turn. Try using this cylinder mechanic to power a car or plane in trail makers.
Or just build two screw rotating in opposite directions.
On the PlayStation port (I assume for Xbox, too, but I don't own one), The achievement named "Leonardo Da Vinci", which requires to be in the air for 60 seconds without power cores, and it shows an image of the aerial screw, sadly no power cores would probably mean a glider, instead of an aerial screw.
This makes me wonder how different propeller planes would function if instead of blades, they used screws. Maybe it has been tried and failed, I don't know, I'm no aerodynamicisist.
People were aware of da vinci's design back when the first attempts at propellers were made. They were tried for both boats and planes, and in both cases it kind of worked, but not nearly as well as the blades we currently use. They were louder, slower, and far easier to break. They are a interesting idea and another proof of da vinci's genius, but like a lot of the hypothetical things he mused about, right direction, but impractical.
@@FastForwardPlans OK, thanks for the history lesson. I had suspicions that someone must've tried this idea at some point.
I'm not either, but I'm betting a screw like that would be a lot heavier than a prop, and likely have serious issues with vortex shedding along the edges which would induce a lot of drag.
I love that we're gradually learning while watching him play
you should make a mechanical horse (in SM) with a lot of power so you can make inefficient old carriage designs
That, or Karl Benz' motorized carriage which led to the invention of the car.
There is this device kids played decades ago. It is lost to history now. It has ball/disc like pointy bottom and a lever on top, if you press it down it spins until it looses its momentum due to time or collisions. Could be fun to make something like that and see how fast and how long you can make it spin.
I think this is the mechanism you were describing. ruclips.net/video/YjyZ5Og3kUs/видео.html "tin plate spinning top" is what I searched for to find it more examples in images then videos.
If I remember correctly what are you actually talking about, I saw such things like 10 years ago or even earlier, maybe something like this is still being sold somewhere I didn't check, but greeting from Russia
"You don't invent physics and then it applies to you"
Says ScrapMan while playing a computer game in which all the physics were invented by programmers.
Maybe you could add pistons from the base to the bottom sail to add more stability to the corkscrew
you should make the DaVinci tank, its basically a pyramid that has around 8 cannons and flaps on the top, and spins while shoot, making it basically a minigun!
Hey scrapman sticking with the rotating theme could you try and recreate one of those twisting seeds that fall from trees and glide gently to the ground.
This actually wouldn't be all that hard to modify to get working in Trailmakers. I can think of two different ways.
One, tailfins or sails extending radially outward from the base would provide a lot more rotational drag, putting much more of the power into the air-screw.
Alternatively, any even number of them connected to each other, with corkscrews in counter-rotating pairs would work, though then it'd just be a primitive quad-copter.
You could also make one with two concentric corkscrews on concentric axles with gearing to make them counter-rotate, but... I think that'd far outstrip the materials available and understanding of mechanics of the time.
I wonder if a sort of flywheel inspired contraption would help with the counter rotation (maybe based around a set of free-floating servos?)
8:17 Woah woah woah woah woah woah woah, That reminds me of the Japanese Anime Scenes "Ore ore ore ore ore ore ore ore.........." Anyways even I was surprised when I saw that thing lift of for a little time especially when Scrapman explained that it isn't supposed to fly.............. 🙂
Anyways I was thinking after watching this video It might be easy for you to make a Sail Beyblade!....Right? If it is easy then pls make one cause even it would be fun to watch it...........👍🏻
Make just a normal vehicle, but it's been named "Dinnerbone". If you don't get the reference it's from Minecraft. If you name something "Dinnerbone", it flips it upside down. So like an upside down boat or car or smth
Mmm and what about a Screw-propelled vehicle, I don't think is going to work because of how physics in games work, but maybe is going to look cool idk xd
So Da Vincis' helicopter theoretically can work - you just need a Sonic to rotate the blade so fast that physics just gives up. 4 ordinary people wouldn't be enough.
Try making a quadcopter with the aerial screw as propellors. Some researched just did that a few days ago and showed it working, even saying that it might have some benefits over tradition propellors.
So I can see why the historically-accurate creation sparked- the lift created by the sails pushed them up against eachother since you didn’t have them all connected individually to the bar in the center, instead creating an almost spring-like design that the generated lift interacted with.
Rq I’m not an engineer lol, I don’t know how to use proper terms to explain this. I’m just trying to put what I see into words
I'd love for you to try to build a strandbeest. They are wind powered walking machines.
What about da Vinci’s “Fighting vehicle”? It’s essentially a 360 degree tank
The original model was connected for stability and avoid collision.. if you connect the sails to the rotating platform, it may work. Still not sure about that
Are we just going progressively further back in time with wacky vehicles?
You could have used an anchor to attach the bottom. Maybe it would make it less glitchy or make it work better
You should try the kugelpanzer spherical tank created in ww2 for scouting
I think if he actually had build it he would be the one that discorverd Conservation of momentum
Could you program some thrusters on the bottom of the creation to fire off at the right time to keep the bottom of the creation from spinning?
I'm really loving this series
Would be awesome to see a rotodyne
you should try making the "john deere timberjack" (or you cant do that?)
Add a reversed helicopter engine at the handles and it might counter the spin and look more like the original plan
you should try to make a flying fish with sails for wings that is also a sub No. 20 I think 😔
You could probably put wings on the base facing sideways so that the base wouldn’t spin as much
How abaut you made the leonardo da vinci tank youl never wiil see this coment but its great to ask
Adding a rudder sail (and front counterweight) to the base may reduce the counter rotation and give steering? Awesome build all the same!!
Crazy plane, well tank but with wings named antonov A-40
On the topic of bizarre, please try the "peugeot moovie concept car"
Try Makeing a gyro copter a its an early hybrid between a plane and a helicopter
Try to make working tank tracks, even if it might be really hard, the end results would be really cool
Tried and it's a pain
I also tried it to make the russian kharkovchanka and it was really glitchy
@@antoniolozic1517 i tried a ww1 tank, but the threads were huge and broke all the times. Collisions in trailmakers are pretty approximated and glitchy, but it's because they're made to make possible to have air drag and body damage in the game, compared to scrap mechanic who doesn't.
Please play stormworks on steam it would fit your channel day 4
Scrapman! Can you make The Goodyear Eagle-360
why do all these creations actually manage to turn out better than the original
Air resistance would let it fly if the sails were spinning fast enough
Why does that kinda look like a firework when it’s at full throttle?
Can you recreate the Atlantic snow cruiser and se how it would work
this series is basically stupid vehicles but with a different name
by definition, this is technically a VTOL aircraft
Finally returning to great original content scrap man is known for
Maybe when you attach sail to the sides bottom platform, they could create enough resistance to stop it from spinning?
You should build a Da Vinci tank. That would be cool
Good thing u didn't screw up once! did you screw up?
Make ekranoplans ship from Soviet union.
You should make a snowmobile in scrap mechanic
try make a plane with that helicopter as the only propeller
try build a turtle submarine that shaped like egg
You should build the APT British train
You should try to make a sailboat that stabilizes using a hiking system in Trail Makers. #33
Day 6 of asking scrapman to play astroneer
One might say you really screwed up.
How about a unicycle with multiple wheel
Try making the rhino from 1954
should make this in main assemble just an idea
