Setting fine pitch stop on prop

Need to set the fine pitch stop on the prop as part of the installation process.

Basic process:

  1. Tie plane down.  
  2. Warm engine, run up to full power
  3. Note RPM
  4. Set prop to manual.  Adjust to get 100 RPM less than prop setting for takeoff.
  5. Adjust fine pitch stop cam.
  6. Repeat until correct.


Engine ran great.  One small adjustment and was good to go.
