Hi Guys,
I just wanted to ask what RPM beyond Redline (which is 2700 for me) constitutes an overspeed condition.
The reason I ask is that I see may people here on the forums talking about having props pitched for best cruise at a specific RPM and being able to achieve xxx Knots at say 2740 RPM.
So my question is how far beyond the RPM redline is considered OK and still safe for the engine?
Cheers
