Re: Reactionless drives. (How should it be done?)

Would it be resonable if a drive worked by direct transformation of the
supplied energy into potential(?) and kinetic energy? This would (I think)
avoid the problem of the manueverdrive pepetum mobile?

Some questions for any Physics majors out there:
Will this lead to major problems of some kind?
Is this really worthwile or is it better to use standard "oldfashioned" :-)
fusiondrives that uses H2O (or whatever) as a reaction mass?
