An amazing build George, well done!!!

Thanks for sharing the build-details, very interesting.
Quite clever method you used to reach the diameter for the flywheel, wouldn´t have thought of that myself...but will certainly remember the trick.
Did the higher gearing for the governor yield the desired result, and what gearratio did you settle on instead of 1:1?
Cheers
