The thing I don't know about is the Dynamo itself.

Does holding the field windings at 12v hold the generated output at 12v and it makes no difference if the speed is then increased?

I haven't made it clear that the electronic regulator would need "tweeking" and some more components to monitor the output and regulate the field accordingly.

Looks like an awful lot of trouble to reinvent the wheel. Just a variable wire wound resistance is all that is needed in the field and keep your eye on what's going on.
