To EFC. from R.{Sir Henry Royce} Copy to CJ. ORIGINAL RECEIVED X. 294 X. 543 RE DYNAMOS AND MOTORS X.1058 X.4007 X.1086 X.4030 X.3966 Will you kindly criticise the curves on dynamos and motors sent by Mr. Olley, (which Cyl/m27420) and let me have your comments. I do not think it will do to be without the reduction on the motor until we have tested it ourselves. My feeling is that we shall make the motor smaller and let it run at a higher speed, in which case we should have preferred to have retained the reduction gear on the motor.
