the experiment was dow at lower power compared to Shawyer EmDrive.... 20W for cannae Drive at NASA, 300-1200W with EmDrive in China.
the performance of EmDrive is about 200-1000mN/kW and Cannae drive (and the null variant) 1.5-5mN/kW... my best bet is that Cannae Drive is an Emdrive born from 0.5% anomalies on cannae drive shape. just a bet. now the question is what will Shawyer and yang Juan will show at IAC14 2014-08-05 17:43 GMT+02:00 Jones Beene <jone...@pacbell.net>: > Interesting side note from > http://ntrs.nasa.gov/search.jsp?R=20140006052 > > Which is the anomalous RF thrust device, aka Emdrive.
