    Jonathan, I do not think your gearbox could cause your problem. The cause may be a bug in the propeller controller. I would ask Airmaster for advice. Good luck Remi Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=496919#496919

    Subject: Biax Material for Europa classic wing
    From: "TobiK" <tobi.karrasch94@web.de>
    Hey Guys, I am actually building an Europa classic (blue foam) Wing. I am running out of material (biax cloth) and I would now like to buy some new. The problem is, I don't know what material the "biax" is. Does anyone of you can help me with a specification or typ of cloth?

    Subject: West Systems for wing filling ??
    Gidday, Over time I have found exposure to Ampreg products gave me flu type symptoms for a couple of days after use, so I have migrated to the West Systems 105/106 Resin/Hardner combination, with far less issues. I am wondering if others have used it for filling their aircraft, whether it sands well, or whether I should consider something else? I think at this stage Ill keep to an epoxy based filler, unless I get a compelling argument to use something else. Hoping to get some pearls of wisdom.... thanks in advance. Regards Tony Renshaw

    Doubt that its propeller related. Try a stethoscope. If you have 600 hours on it, you may be ready for some gear box service. I had 700 hours on mine before getting rebuilt.Dont let it go too long as it is full of expensive parts. -------- N951EU - Tri-gear &amp; 912ULS, N77EU- Mono &amp; 914 I'D RATHER HAVE A BOTTLE IN FRONT OF ME THAN A FRONTAL LABOTAMY.

    Hi TobiK. I too built a classic but didn't have the biax cloth. I spoke with Andy D and he told me the very early kits (first 12 or so) used 2 layers of uni. When i was looking for the Biax cloth ito couldn't get the exact specs not even from the LAA. Good Luck Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=496926#496926

    Hi Jonathan, what you describe is 'Heterodyning' or 'Beat-frequency' created by the difference between two noise or vibration frequencies very close together. Do you have a recording on e.g. a mobile phone that i could listen to - along with the engine speeds in play at the time? And what about:- 1) How the frequency of 'wow-wow' change if you speed up or slow down the engine a bit? 2) How does the 'wow-wow' effect change with Airspeed? 3) the CS mode idea is viable too - does it occur when that is turned off/the prop is not trying to hunt for optimum speed vs pitch? It's impossible to say from just the description given, but assuming the above items make a significant difference, my initial suspicions would be one prop blade with a slightly different prop pitch to the others and/or blade tip tracking differences between blades. Both of those parameters should be quite easy to check on the ground (no engine running needed) and reporting any variation you find?
