Right, sorry. We're using all Victors due to cost and available parts (we have lots of Victors, but not lots of Jags). Starting with the large I was a matter of keeping the stability we needed and then tuning in spin-up speed, rather than trying to maximize spin-up speed and then tune in stability.
