If you are in the aerospace industry and working with propulsion technologies C-Drives are without doubt the very cutting edge of propulsion science. When a rocket blasts off its platform and starts to move toward escape velocity it is burning tremendous amounts of fuel.
We have discussed Gravity Assist (GA) which is the capacity of C-Drives to redirect the downward pull of gravity and instead convert it into an upward thrust that neutralizes gravitational force. This is referred to as buoyancy. C-Drives can use internal efficiencies to magnify gravitational force to generate buoyance, something usually only observed in dirigibles that contain vast amounts of gas that is lighter than air. C-Drives can use mechanical engineering to achieve this same effect.
This is not where it ends. C-Drives also have G-Force Assist (GFA). G-Force assist is what the aerospace industry will find very interesting. Acceleration unleashes G-Forces. Every time you step on the pedal in your car and you feel yourself pressed against your seat, these are G-Forces at work. If a car can produce significant G-Force, what more a rocket accelerating its way to speeds higher than the speed of sound.
A conventional rocket generates tremendous G-Force, however, it cannot exploit it. In the same way that C-Drives can take gravity and exploit it to create Gravity Assist, they can also exploit the G-Forces being created by a rocket or any vehicle, point and re-deploy them in any direction. When they point them in the same direction of acceleration this is called G-Force Assist (GFA) when they point them in the opposite direction this is referred to Braking Assist (BRA).
G-Force Assist acts somewhat like the turbo-boost on a car that compresses air and feeds it into the combustion chamber. C-Drives can compress G-Forces and feed back into the direction of travel thereby increasing the propulsive force by which a ship is heading into Space. This means less fuel is used during launches and yet the acceleration available is more significant.
