Stuart S/50 Hybrid p.2 (A fun video)

Made another video compilation of this plant which never gets old to me. I enjoy making videos and taking angles so you can be there with me.

Just showing the running and shutting down.  It’s a handsome plant in my eyes and I enjoy sharing again and again.

Enjoy.

They work quite well if adjusted good - see my other steam plant on my YouTube channel.

Here is a very good demo of the Jin governor working at its finest.  I have this one at the utmost fine tuning based on pulley ratios, speed, and 2 o rings for adjustment.


There is a clip where I fully demonstrate a load and how the Governormkeeps
The same RPM’s.

Nice enough video, though a bit more time doing the governor demo would have been good.

However, that is not a Stuart S/50, but rather a PMR #3, though I do get that this is part 2 so changes have been made.
