The E.H.D. Flying Saucer v2.0
By Jean-Louis Naudin
created on April 11, 1999 - JLN
Labs - Last update April 16, 1999
This version is an enhanced version of
the EHD-Flying Saucer v1.0
that I have experimented successfuly.
I have added an insulated landing gear (see the picture below)
for a better positionning on the main plateform.

For more informations about the setup of the experiment, see also the EHD-FS v1.0
Notes from Jean-Louis Naudin : WARNING !! this experiment uses High Voltages (25kV), use EXTREME CAUTION, always discharge and disconnect the power supply before touch it.
