Carl, no answer for your question regarding prop, but I know Bud Yerly has been
working on a constant speed propeller for the Jabiru engine. You might drop
him a line.

I just started to fly my Europa with the Jabiru engine. I sure hope I get better
than 27 liter per hour. That will kill me money wise. I have had three short
flights and have had to land quickly on each. The first two were because
of overheating. The third flight I think I have the heating partially taken
care of as the engine didn't over heat, but the elevator control did not feel
right so I landed.
Where are you located? I'm in Dixon, CA, USA

Hi AirEuropa,
I believe my carb needs some tuning to improve the economy, I hope so
anyway!
I will be very interested to hear what you do to solve your overheating
problem. What was the ambient temperature? My aircraft behaves fine with
the temperature at 20 degrees C, but at 25 degrees C it is very marginal,
getting hot at only 1200ft.
I'm in the south of the UK. So it doesn't go above 20 degrees very often!
(Sorry about the metric !)
Regards,
-Carl.
