Ok, I thought I understood how a CS propeller works, but I guess I don't. I purchased new blades from GT Propeller in Italy and had them installed on my Hartzell hub. Alex at GT told me I would probably need to adjust my governor, so I was not surprised to only see 2400 on a high speed ground roll. My thought was that I would need to adjust the stop screw on the governor arm to allow more forward travel, but the propeller shop says the propeller should be at its fine pitch stops during the run up and the stops (not the governor) need to be adjusted on the hub. I work with several professional pilots and a couple A&Ps and everyone seem to have a different opinion about exactly how the propeller should be set up. I'm sooooo confused...... I'm obviously going to follow the prop shops directions, however, I am just trying to understand what is actually happening.
Anyone out there have a dumbed down explanation I might understand???
