Still indeterminate. The chain slack makes it very hard to tell. I'll test again after I fix that -- adding more flywheel weights is super easy, can do that anytime next week.

I was noticing issues with chain slack. It's not awful, but it looks like you're only getting work out of the outermost parts of the beam stroke.

Oh, the slack is pretty bad right now. But I didn't want to go to the effort of adjusting the chains for the new wheels until I knew they were going to work.

Well, considering the complexity of the steering system, and that you've actually BUILT something that works, I'm not going to carp about a bit of deadband. It's completely awesome even in its current state.
