I see it in the A8 when in that bad-RPM range and the thing tries to shake itself to death.

 

yes, A8 definitely has it, but the gauge's needle vibration is due to the engine vibration resulting in a very high rpm fluctuations within the range of ~650rpm - 1200rpm. I've read somewhere that all 7 and 9 cyl single row or 14 and 18 cyl double row radial engines suffer from it while operating at low RPM's, it's their intrinsic weakness. The Merlins are in-line v12's, it's a completely different beast.

 

anyway, this was an interesting topic to discuss and we've completely exhaust it imho. The only thing left is for ED to comment on it 😄
