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 sufficient. 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} | ||
