This video shows the two electromagnet propelled 107 gram boat swinging side to side from the electromagnets powered through 6 volts of 4 AAA batteries.

Granted this isn't the best trial because the boat was already moving a little when it started but you'll get the general idea.

The circuit uses two TIP31C power transistors controlled by an Arduino Nano through an IR remote. The blue and red leds indicate which magnet is on.

Stay tuned:)
