Magnetic Boat With 2 Servos Close Together

This boat weighs 4 5/8 ounces so there is a lot of drag but it seems to continue to accelerate.

The reasoning behind two magnets separated by about 90 degrees is that they can easily be maneuvered in almost a complete circle without accidentally going completely around.

There is some added weight on the back of the boat to make the center of mass farther from the center of the torque from the magnets interacting with Earth's magnetic field.

Stay tuned:)
