Fantastic post, a real gem to have here in the forum database. I'm suprised that more people aren't excited about it. I for one am going to give this a go in the fall sometime. This is the sort of stuff I like, and I'm sure many others do to, some technical information that is well-founded and accessable.
Now, given some of those figures and we know 1 newton meter is 0.737 lb ft, then from a previous post:
"To quote the DRB brochure over 7000 Nm per degree
The roaring forties state that at over 20000 Nm of torque the deflection was 0ne degree."
Then the DRB is around 5159 ft lb and the RF is at 14740. Seems like a big difference so I wonder if there is an error somewhere. What are the figures for the mono replicas? Originals?
