| Torotrak - Infinately variable Transmission Hello, I found this new type of automatic transmission for vehicles and I thought it might be ideal for operating engines at the most efficient rpm whilst having a variable propeller rpm. A replacement for a controllable pitch propeller maybe. I think a marine version would not need the high speed overdrive clutch. No forward or reverse gear change, the angle of the variator rollers control the direction. What are your thoughts ?
