While conducting a full-power runup today prior to first flight, I determined that, with 2650 RPM indicated, I still had about two inches of throttle travel left to go. Clearly, going to full throttle on takeoff would result in overspeeding the engine.
This is a -14A with the standard IO-390 and Hartzell scimitar setup. My G3X is set for the P-mag?s required 2 pulses. I used the Van?s-supplied control cables and all were setup per the manual.
Do I need to adjust the prop?s low pitch screw to achieve 2650 RPM on full-throttle static runup or is this a governor issue?
