There are a lot of sources for thrust in the internet,

and i've got some ideas for the physics from there 
(look at: http://www.lysator.liu.se/~peda/thrust/).
Implementation on the vcs seems very possible 
(lot's of tables for all the (co)sinsus-values). 
Displaying the wire and the ball (without to much 
flicker) looks a little bit more difficult with the
kernel 
i have now.
