General Arrangement of the Servo and Balance Lever.
It will be seen that the servo diameter
is less than on the Phantom.
The general layout is on the lines of
the 20HP. It will be noticed however that we are propos-
ing to try ferodo lining for the balancing lever suspension
link instead of steel and steel as now. This is to avoid
the inconsistency which varying lubrication of the steel
might produce.
