    Subject: RPM issue
    That is true, but only for MT props made I guess in the last six years or so. But in any case, particularly in aerobatics where it is useful to have rapid pitch changes, higher oil pressure from the governor definitely helps.

    Subject: Re: RPM issue
    where are you going with this Dennis? I have a new MT on order and have upgraded to stronger springs in my governor. What else should I be looking for when I get the propeller reinstalled? rgds Stephen > On 23 Dec 2021, at 20:26, Anthony Savarese <dsavarese0812@bellsouth.net> wrote: > > > What happens when you pull the throttle back AFTER youve pulled the prop back to where the rpm is 2000 or 70%?
