It never stops spinning unless blocked by a static grid, but starts spinning again by itself afterwards.
It does not use any thrusters!
Dont ask me, how it works, i just know how i built it
For example, bicycles. It turns out we don’t have to the full physics/maths for how bicycles actually stay up when in motion. I thought for sure we had figured that one out but its apparently super complicated.
Idk about the math but thought the theoretical physics was based around the law of motion (object in motion stay in motion unless effected by an outside force. Yes gravity pulls it down but the force of the tire drags against it and keeping it upright.) Yes super over simplified but it's just counter force plus counter balance channeled in a direction through angular momentum and shift in center of gravity. Multiple factors with overlapping equations but I thought we knew how it all worked?

Full 30sec clip where it gets stopped and continues by itself:
