This is just proof of concept, but I'm hoping to get this to power a mech. It's better than a standard infinite rotator because you can control the speed, and it can actually stop. If you somehow find a use for this, feel free to use. Give credit if you want, but otherwise enjoy it's current uselessness :) Hope you enjoy!

Nice engine
@traindude48 thanks again :) I've finally gotten a working walker powered by it, once i iron the kinks out of that I'll start working on one that doesn't have the direction problem
@PlanesOfOld go for it! I'd love to see it
@traindude48 yeah, that's the main issue. I have an idea that might fix it but I haven't tested it yet. If it's going to spin fast you could try putting dead weight in the beams connecting the two sides. It'll give it way more torque unfortunately but it might fix that problem
ohhhh, thats smart, wouldn't have thought of that. @Shmexysmpilot
I could try and build a car with it.
@aircraftarsenal123 yeah, once I got the parts with disabled collision I still had the problem of a twitch and the rotation direction switching with every revolution it did. I solved that by making the vertical pistons go 0.05 shorter than the horizontal ones so that they're always pulling a little bit when the horizontal ones are fully extended
Wow, this is genius! Its really smooth, I tried to do the same thing and mine just bounced around everywhere.
@traindude48 of course!
Smart
