hi all

i had a sort of idea for a perpetual motion faller car

its only a idea but would like feedback on it

but basic princible would be that it would use a dc to dc converter to charge another battery while in motion on a layout which at some point it then gets switched over via reed switches like a wig wag effect.

here is pic of the diagram that i thought



but if you think anything is missing then please add

but i do know that i will loose a voltage drop but like i say its just an idea

cheers all
