An object named "Flyingmagnet", useless, seemingly... its most obvious duty being to take up its duty! This realization requires meticulousness and makes possible to apprehend unusual electric, magnetic and mechanical behaviour, which for some time should please any hobbyist familiar with electronics and metalwork, even model makers, moreover this object comprises an aesthetic dimension which can be developed according to the inspiration of each one.

Presentation of Flyingmagnet©

An aluminium base comprising the passive devices for the magnetic levitation (permanent magnets) and active devices for the stabilization consisting of a multipurpose printed circuit board wired as an analogical servo controller and linked to adequate sensor as input and magnetic coils field as output. A flat drilled aluminum foil covering up this assembly.
The magnetic object floating over this base: in this geometry (identified as #1, 6 geometries are tested) that consists of 2 sets of 4 permanent magnets inside a brass tube of sizes :15 mm diameter by 150 mm length.
The whole is powered from a wall plug-in transformer (secondary 15 Vca).
