Alan, I have had the same experiences here in the States on test flights so
I know the feeling. Most of the time, if the prop is going to load up, it
does it on take off roll but I did have it happen once at about 200 feet on
climb out. In that case, 1/2 degree was all it took to correct the
problem. But your are right, the original Perry props were sometimes not correct
or mismatched to the gear box.
In this case, he is using a Culver prop, but again, it may not be right. I
have always liked the GSC adjustable for the 582. It provided a way to
adjust for winter and summer to get peak performance.

Subject: Pulsar-List: GSC Prop
We have a 582 Pulsar ready to fly but the prop is only allowing 5600 RPM
static, which is too low for flight. If take off were attempted the prop
would load up and the RPM would drop. This could be a break in issue on the
engine or his prop may have too much pitch.
Does anyone have a prop for a 582 Pulsar, perhaps a GSC ground adjustable,
that he can borrow or purchase? He is grounded until he gets a replacement.
Thanks,
Greg Smith

Alan - I have a Pulsar XP (similar cabin dimension specs to Rotax 582 power
ed-Pulsar Series I).- I found a way to very simply-retrofit to electr
ic flaps using Fergelli 2 In. linear actuator.- The actuator mounts in co
ntrol stick tunnel, no intermediate cables or pulleys and no need to tear u
p seat bottom during retrofit process.- I can provide pictures and my-t
elephone number for assistance.

Hi Alan,
I have electric flaps on my Pulsar III. I am away from the plane now, but I
can oblige with the build manual instructions, if OK.
Please advise.

Have a person that has purchased a second hand Pulsar Series 1, 582 trigear

Any photo, diagram and material used would be very useful.

David could you post the pictures to the group. I have an XP and would like
to see how you setup the electric flaps.
If you have something you can email then send it to my email address of
fgilmer@twlt.net
thanks Fred Gilmer
