Jack,

with my AeroComposites prop and a McCauley hub the high speed setting is adjustable but the low speed just stops at hard stops on the hub and is not adjustable. I had my low pitch changed from 9° to 10°. My high pitch can not be adjusted.

>> Got a question for  360 flyers with over 200HP and the Hartzell prop with 68" blades.  I need to know if you guys with the higher HP can bring your RPM's down to say 2000 or so while running full throttle at alitude of 12,000 to 17,500.  I have to pull back power in order to bring the rpms down at alitude of 12,000 +.
