I have been reading (drooling) about 40's for about 25 years. I have found reference to the original wiper motors being sourced from Boeing 707's.
Has anyone been game enough to use one of these in their build, and if so, did it perform adequately?
The Australian Design Rules (ADR's) we must comply with for rego require 45 sweeps per minute minimum. Do aircraft wipers achieve this speed - or conversely do they travel at 150 wipes/minute?
Boeing wiper motors are available, so exploring the possibilities.
