2. Outboard motor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outboard_motor

   The pivoting design allows the outboard motor to be swiveled by the operator in almost all directions: Sideways for direction, up and down to change the thrust line according to speed or bow lift, elevate completely out of water for easy starting, placing the drive shaft and the propeller forward along the side of the boat for reverse, or put ...

And the first A series whose Pitch Band and Modulation uses a Joystick) PSR-A3000 (2016, Oriental version based on Yamaha PSR-S770 and first A Series to have multiple colours in the board)

4. Thrust-specific fuel consumption - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrust-specific_fuel...

   TSFC or SFC for thrust engines (e.g. turbojets, turbofans, ramjets, rockets, etc.) is the mass of fuel needed to provide the net thrust for a given period e.g. lb/(h·lbf) (pounds of fuel per hour-pound of thrust) or g/(s·kN) (grams of fuel per second-kilonewton). Mass of fuel is used, rather than volume (gallons or litres) for the fuel ...

5. Throttle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Throttle

   At the extreme, higher-performance cars like the E92 BMW M3 and Ferraris, and high-performance motorcycles like the Yamaha R6, can use a separate throttle body for each cylinder, often called "individual throttle bodies" or ITBs. Although rare in production vehicles, these are common equipment on many racing cars and modified street vehicles.

6. High availability - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_availability

   Passive redundancy is used to achieve high availability by including enough excess capacity in the design to accommodate a performance decline. The simplest example is a boat with two separate engines driving two separate propellers. The boat continues toward its destination despite failure of a single engine or propeller.

7. Two-stroke engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-stroke_engine

   This disadvantage is accepted in most cases where cost, weight, and size are major considerations. The problem comes about because in "forward" running, the major thrust face of the piston is on the back face of the cylinder, which in a two-stroke particularly, is the coolest and best-lubricated part.
