Centrifugal governors (also called fly-ball governors) were most often used on stationary steam engines (such as power plants, or to drive overhead-belt power systems), and on steam traction engines (to govern RPM for attached machinery); they weren't used on railway locomotives that I know of (the engineer controls the speed for those).

Bruce Brodnax

I think it depends on the loco; pretty sure I've seen a shot somewhere along the line of a fly-ball on a steam loco [used for the water pump feed to the boiler, iirc.] But yes, I'd agree that if I'm not completely mistaken, it was still a rarity.

I heard balls to the wall is related to the throttle levers aircraft. The levers have round knobs. Pushing them forward opens the throttles...

Thomas Batha

I see that the 200th episode is coming up fast. Any plans for something special?

Romulus

It could also be a trucking thing, high gear on the old school split transmissions was forward to the wall bc of the dog legged first gear

Galli Pozzi

I've actually seen the Royal Armouries series start using B-roll footage recently, usually timed up pretty okay with his commentary (still no general clean shot of every side of the gun). Jonathan Ferguson also definitely has some notes off to his side where he turns to look at, but yeah he seems to mainly just speak on the fly

It took me awhile to realize the shed got delivered. Kept going through the story wondering why you guys were putting the posts back. Regarding the desperation of starting a new channel. Once the new format is ready maybe create a new “old gun show” channel and upload on both C&rsenal and new channel and see which one grows better. Then again that is changing a lot of variables at once so you wouldn’t be sure what got fixed. Better one problem at a time I guess. Anyway I would subscribe to the new channel and do my best to support both

Can we leave the ranting behind now please ? ....I don't use Discord, maybe Othias should leave it alone as well if it's full of idiots . I'd rather hear about the scooters or Mae's yard work . Sorry fella .
