Adjusting the subdriver ballast vent/blow mechanism

[redboat219]

David,

Mike Caswell used to have a YT video showing you discussing how to make step by step adjustments to the vent/ blow mechanism in the 2-2.5 inch subdrivers. Unfortunately the video is gone. Hope you could make a new one or post a guide manual here.

I don’t know if it will help you, but I found this.

Apparently the Caswell stuff is no longer available. Out of my hands.

Thanks Das but it was specific to David's 2-3" subdrivers. There are 3 adjustment points were you could alter or fine tune vent and blow (how much propel to released) i

David, that might be a good video to do for your YouTube channel.

Would be quite helpful as there are still a lot of subdriver owners out there.

I remember in your old video that younoted that shouldn't try all adjustment point simultaneously. Wheel collars first, the schraeder blow valve next. Reserving the flap valve screw the last.

Correct. Thanks for the augmentation. My video was far from complete and poorly produced. Not my best effort at that sort of thing.
