| To D.A. from E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} Copy to EFC. EH. [crossed out] CJ. [crossed out] x.3533. x.3534 [crossed out] ORIGINAL [stamp] E5/G9/4/19. 10 APR 1919 [stamp] RE 20 H.P. STARTER MOTOR AND DYNAMO. We send you herewith drawing No. Lec.1073 shewing the above. Would Mr. Clark kindly get out the necessary windings for the motor and the dynamo, and have models made full scale to be sent to West WitteringHenry Royce's home town, of the motor and dynamo armatures, and the field windings. The shaft between the motor and the dynamo will be operated by oil power. A scheme will be sent later shewing the mechanism dealing with this point. The shaft at present is shewn plain, but will have a control collar added to it. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} | ||
