I moved the Tesla coil back to prevent interference with the RC receiver. I insulated the negative ion generator to reduce sparking. I think I need a higher torque DC motor on the bottom to get the magnets closer together and better build up a field between the bottom and middle plates. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkHAJrVLzlg
The plates were to close together so there was to much torque on the bottom motor. When magnets rotate near an aluminum surface eddy currents caused by lenz's law causes a backwards torque on the motor even though nothing is touching.

Yeah, that burning smell was the bottom motor melting the ABS plastic frame. This design was far enough apart for the bottom motor to spin, but the resistance of the magnets near the aluminum plate caused the bottom motor to heat up. This design uses only three arms to hold all the disks in place unlike the four arm design I had before. This design is promising, but the bottom disk needs to be further apart from the center disk, or I need bigger motor on bottom, or weaker magnets, or thinner center plate. Probably adding another half an inch between the bottom and middle plate will fix the overheating problem; time to reprint.

Alexey Chekurkov's Tesla Coil and Gravetometer just arrived in the mail from overseas. I recreated these two parts, and should receive the remaining parts from Alexey soon. Once I have all his kit I will try to verify his lift effect.

New instructions from Alexey Chekurkov:
"I apologize for the delay in answering for a long time I was not at home.
1. Turn off the voltage on the disks briefly before extreme high saturation of the torsion fields for 5-7 seconds, and then high voltage is applied again. This will become clear when the Tesla coil begins to emit a quiet whistling sound.
2. The motors do not turn off and are constantly working to maintain the energy efficiency.
3. Ultrasound turns on when torsion fields are formed with a certain structure, I do not know exactly when that happens, and that’s why I have been setting up the device for so long trying to catch the right moment.
4. Plasmoids appear with strong torsion fields.
5. Height adjustment and stabilization occurs when the ultrasonic generator’s potentiometer is turned to the right and the potentiometer on the tesla coil is turned to the left simultaneously.
I admit that the translation may be clumsy and you may not understand some semantic explanations correctly, but I hope you will do everything right. Good luck.
Soon I will conduct experiments with a mercury engine as in Indian Vimanas, and I will remake the discs on the new Graviflyer not from metal but from electret, as in the Haunebu (Nazi German Bell) technologies. There is no need to set up the device for a long time. Wait for the results."
