I'm using a prop governor made in the Chec republic - = the name of which is unspellable and unpronouncible, at least by me. = It was available from Whirlwind propellers and has worked perfectly for me.= My takeoff rpm is usually within 10 rpm of the setpoint. It is= about 2 pounds lighter and 2 inches shorter than a McCauley. Only pr= oblem was that it didn't come preset for 2700 rpm and I had to experiment a= little to get it right. Someone could put it on a test stand and set= it before first flight and that would be better. Works for me.
