The V2 and V3 are posted in the list. Here is the V4.

Mikey's post on the V3 clearly shows the positive set winding stem. The V4 came with both positive and negative winding bits. There is an example on eBay at this time of a V4 with the positive setting works, but not sure I want to pony up money just to post a photo. Maybe some one can help out with this in subsequent comment?

This example has the negative setting.

The whiplash regulator is a pain in the can to adjust.

All I know is based on hard work & writing by others. I can only aspire to augment this body of knowledge. If I am wrong it is because of my own failings. -me
