| HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} FROM R.{Sir Henry Royce} (At Le CanadelHenry Royce's French residence.) X.6004 R4/M2.3.31. Copy to EFC. STANDARDISATION - 48 COIL ARMATURE DYNAMO OF MEDIUM OUTPUT - i.e. WITHOUT POLE PIECE MODIFICATION IN CONJUNCTION WITH TWO RATE OUTPUT SWITCHING SCHEME.) I have passed the above standardisation sheet and send it herewith, but I think that we are making very poor progress on this work. We seem to be doing much spending of money and getting no results towards maintaining output at the higher speeds. (EFC. is responsible.) R.{Sir Henry Royce} [STAMP TEXT: RECEIVED 3 MAR 1931] | ||
