Twin pulsejet trike

[Jonny69]

This guy is plum crazy but I damn well know what is on the drawing board as soon as this car is done!!! Just a short 30 metre run, but you get the idea, listen to that echo when it first fires!!!

Longer run on a runway, makes my pulsejets sound like a Rolls Royce in comparison...

I'm glad he aint my neighbour

I'll put this into perspective, the explosion when mine first fires rocks the windows in a brick building and when it was running in the back garden it sounded like someone was ragging an engine with no exhaust in front of you in the front room.

Those ones look about three times the exhaust diameter of mine and the noise levels quadruple when you double the exhaust diameter. All I can say is

We have one of these at college, it was fired up over the previous summer and we heard the damn thing from across the college campus

Is it just me or did the couple of bangs after the first loud one sound like bongo drums

 

[MrSix]

Fit them to some rollerskates and you're laughing

Fit them to some rollerskates and you're laughing

Forget the roller skates, I'm laughing nonstop now!!!

That first BOOM just sends me into giggles for minutes on end!!!!

And then the echos when he shuts it down!!

I wanna make one now!!!

My wife wants to know where Robin is for the Batbike!?!?!?

Look at the heat coming off the pipes in the second video, crazy

 

[Jonny69]

Guys, honestly you can't imagine how loud that is

Are these easy to make jonny?. I'm probably not even the 10th person to ask this, but.. Do you have a link? .

 

[Jonny69]

Reasonable easy if you have access to a set of sheet metal rollers and you can weld. The ones on the trike have tapered tubes so you need to be able to roll that out of flat sheet but most of the valveless designs use straight sided tube so you can make it out of exhaust tube, either stainless or plain steel and you don't need the rollers. You can buy the 180 degree bends, cut to length, weld and job is done.

If weight isn't an issue you can make it out of pretty much any metal pipe. You can run them on propane.

There's a guy with a seriously big one on a pretty scary looking cart here: http://mywebpages.comcast.net/ZSartell/jetkart.htm and there are movies of it running.
