Throttling up, not working

Post by jetsmell »

When I throttle up the engine rpm's only go about half way. I even gave it some carburetor heat and it was a clear dry day, same thing. It was given a complete overhaul, no luck. There's no problem with the other A2A Aircraft.

Hi Jetsmell,

Have you tried cycling the propeller pitch control, and if you use a hardware axis for this have you checked it's properly calibrated?

Thanks,
Nick
