I took one of the clips that I filmed vertical and uploaded it as my first experience publishing a "Short".

They seem to get a lot of views.


Good Job.  Showed up in my feed and asked for feedback.  Great engine.  Cant wait to see it under a load.  Shorts are the best.  I try and link them to my kong form videos to drive duek traffic.  Great Job Red

Pretty amazing fine tuning there Gil!

Kept expecting it to hang up a TDC, so the suspense was killing me ...    ;c)
That is precisely the same suspense that I felt every time it was ready to fire.

Had a little time last week to move the Gearless Olds model outdoors

And give it a good run. I adjusted the pendulum governor to slow it down about as far as mechanically possible.

Enjoy!

Gil
