Subject: | Re: Propellers - Woodcomp SR3000/2W |
Sorry for the late response I have been away for a few weeks.
I did contact Jiri regarding the use of the 3000/3W with a 912S and here is his
response
"Dear Malcolm,
I recommend you to use the three bladed propeller type SR 3000/3 - diameter 1650mm.
We made the special propeller for David - it means the SR 3000/3W - diameter 1650mm
but it works on the 914turbo only. David prefered the twisted blades due
to high altitude flying.
Double bladed propeller type SR 3000/2W - but the diameter 1650mm - I dont have
any experience with this shorter diameter.
Could you contact our UK partner Mr Kevin Dilks, please ?
Best regards
Jiri"
I don't understand why the 3W would not work with the 912S and also the reference
to Dave's high altitude flying but there you go, Im still pondering.
thoughts anyone?

Interesting to see then that my arguments are supported by Mark Burton
(manufacturer of the controller) and some others.
Your arguments limp, because numerous people have now tried to explain
that faulty microswitches can not be responsible for your crash, and you
still haven't got the clue.

Wrong again. The controller will run until the target RPM has been
reached. It has nothing to do with micro-switches at all. If a micro
switch opens when you reach the desired RPM then there is a grave error
in the whole setup. It is similar to trying to trim the airplane and the
trim servo reaches its end and cuts the power. If you have to trim the
airplane always to the end limiter, you'd better start checking a few
things. The micro switches should only open if for some reason the
controller tries to move the pitch outside the designed area.

There are numerous people now trying to explain a few basic things, like
that broken micro switches can never cause the CB to blow and/or make
the prop go into a non-flyable state. Maybe you should read more
carefully what these people are trying to explain.
