Recent Maul TK Hyperdrive Feat

https://youtu.be/DaOPMPzPsSU

With regards to Mauls recent TK feat: ie bringing down the Hyperdrives : do you reckon that he only destroyed the support structure with his force to bring down the whole HD and let it free fall or did he use his force powers to bring down the whole thing including its weight pulling it down slowly with his force powers etc ?

Well if he could bring it down instantly he would've done so. He definitely destroyed what was holding it up and then he used the force to make it fall faster.

Maul was pulling on the hyperdrives and the pipes got dislodged due to the movement. You can literally see the hyperdrives shaking. If Maul was just pulling the pipes there would be no reason for the Hyperdrives to shake like that before they fall. There are also mini explosions. No reason for those if Maul didn't affect the hyperdrive directly.
Also, the small pipes that popped out aren't what connects those things to the ship.In the video lnked by ozz81 you can clearly see the hypedrives are massive pillars that connect down, likely to the floor bellow, so Maul would have to destroy that portion of it for them to fall.The feat is very impressive.

Yeah this feat is great and trivializing it is just a demonstration of Maul denialism.

Yes he shakes the hyperdrive, destroying the pipes which are what is holding the hyperdrives.

Darth Maul collapsed the fundamental support structures, and the remainder fell apart consequently.

There's two perspectives of looking at how Maul deconstructed the hyperdrives that people have offered:

1). Maul shaked the hyperdrive, destroying the hyperdrives support structure i.e. the pipes in the process.
2). Maul destroyed the hyperdrives support structure i.e. the pipes, which causes the hyperdrive to fall apart.

Both perspectives actually make the feat really impressive, I think the first is more likely, because the hyperdrives are visibly shaking, but regardless of which perspective you use, that doesn't make Maul's feat any less impressive, because if all he did was collapse the support structures, then that means that the only reason why the hyperdrives themselves are still up there is because Maul allowed them by telekinetically holding everything in place. In fact, Maul does actually visibly hold them in place for 17 seconds, they fall when the clone troopers arrive to attack Maul, at the same time Maul opens his eyes and changes his stance, voluntarily letting them go out of his Force grip, releasing and guiding them to the bridge that the clone troopers are running on. The reason why he doesn't instantly bring it down is because he didn't want to do it until he's baited the clones.

To me it just looks like he is shaking them, they fall, then he gives them an extra push. It's still obviously impressive though.

They only fall when Maul voluntarily releases his telekinetic grip, which conveys that Maul was actually using telekinesis to hold them in place, which is extremely impressive, denying that is just being willfully ignorant.

Not just that, but the hyperdrives were on each side of the walkway. When the Troopers arrive, Maul seems to use his TK to direct the hyperdrives onto the walkway itself.

Exactly.

No he wasn't. They fell when he thrust his arms downward pulling them down. Seriously, why would he bother holding them up? It would make no sense.

cool but still impressive as he is still using his TK force powers to bring it down etc..

Sure. Never said or suggested otherwise.

He said you are being willfully ignorant, which you have a history of doing with Maul.

Like one guy says he didnt pull down the hyperdrives, just the supports, and you jump all over that to lowball the feat.

It actually does make sense because the reason why the reason why the fell when he thrusted his arms downward, pulling them down the moment the clones arrived, was because he was waiting for them to arrive so that he could kill them.

He doesn't release his grip because he isn't holding them up. He's shaking it, which breaks whatever it is connected to, then he pushes it down to increase its speed.

If he could completely move the hyperdrive then his movement would be in-sync with the hyperdrives falling.

I don't get what all the confusion about this feat is. It's very simple and obvious what is going on. Maul grabs the hyperdrives and begins trying to rip them down. This causes the various supports to eventually break at which he further accelerates the drives downward causing them to crash into the clones and the walkway. He never targets the supports themselves nor does he hold the drives up.
