Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}1/LG26.3.24. OBJECT OF TEST. Tests on W.W.111. type servo. TESTER. A.{Mr Adams} C. Lovesey. R.{Sir Henry Royce} Bolton. CONDITIONS. Completed gearbox and servo mounted on test bench. SUMMARY OF TEST. These tests confirm the results obtained on the road that the output of the servo is not suff-icient. Tests will be made with difference angles of thread. It would appear that there is an ample margin for keeping cool. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
