Hi all,
Just hooked up my Jihostroj prop governor with a Vans throttle quadrant. I can
get full forward (fine pitch) no problem (adjusted for this), but when I pull
the prop control back, it doesn't come all the way back on the prop governor
(about 1/4" short).
Should I drill another hole and get full stroke on the governor, or do we ever
pull it all the way coarse?
Jeff

Jeff.... Just fly it that way first... You will probably never use the
govenor to get to full coarse pitch. Typically, you will certainly use the
fine pitch portion of the curve and you would be surprised (at least I was)
at how little rotation the governor arm has to make to increase the pitch of
the blades...
Just fly it and then adjust for what you might need.

Likewise, why don't we have a list of all the "Rocketeers" (who want to be
on it) distributed. I for one would very much enjoy any Rocket Pilots, or
RV'ers to fly into Rebel's Bluff for a visit. You can come and stay, or........
just grab lunch and a fillup of the least expensive fuel anywhere. You are
welcome! Just ask Harry Paine, Vince Frazier, or Paul Rosales. Rebel's
Bluff is 2 miles north of Mt Vernon (MISSOURI) International Airport. N37 06.1
and W93 52.2. I will hangar your airplane and treat you to the finest Ozarks
Hospitality. Let's get together and share our passion for the Rocket Ride,
or better yet, do as Harry and I did, and fly a Rocket vacation together.
