Compass Magnet Motor is Faster with some Improvements

We added a sort of axle and bearing to the top of the magnets so they would stay level and turn smoothly.

We've gotten the motor to go at a top speed of 390 RPM but in this video the top speed was 381 RPM. At speeds other than top speed it runs a lot more steadily. We are not really sure if the wobbling at high speed is caused by the lack of good balance of the lower part of the armature or somewhere else.

Stay tuned:)
