I've done enough experiments along the lines of this device to have some confidence in the principal. Nevertheless, the proof will be in the numbers it generates.
Another interesting corollary that I believe uses this principal is the "slingshot" trajectory used by NASA to propel their spacecraft to the outer planets. In the explanation of this technique it is stated that the extra energy used is from the gravitational pull of the sun (pulse motor), which accelerates the spacecraft in conjunction with the gravitational pull of a selected planet. These together generate enough velocity in the spacecraft to not only allow it to escape the gravitational field of the planet, but to also propel it into the outer realms of our solar system (in opposition to the Suns gravitational pull).
If it works for NASA, why shouldn't it work for us? Chalkalis is doing the exact same thing with his pendulum. Milkovic has been telling us it works too, along with a number of other inventors using this principal. It is certainly not without president.
The only hurdles to be overcome are engineering issues: Delivering efficient acceleration pulses to the pendulum, or flywheel; when, and how much energy to extract; sizing everything properly, etc... This work needs to be done in order to develop the principal into a usable device. Who's going to volunteer?
