Constant Speed Prop

Post by woodwing1 »

'I am in the process of getting ready to put N77681 back on floats. My bird is a 24W with the Continental conversion. One thing that I would like to do is put a constant speed prop on it. I currently have two electric props with Tarver blades that came with it, and have a Sensinch cruise prop on the front of it right now. Any advice on getting some additional performance out of this bird would be much appreciated. I might have to go experimental as the floats it was on are Edo 2870's and it is STCed for 2880's. From what I understand the 2870 is a little underfloated so I may go up a float size.'
