Nobags Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Possibly another option, old fashioned, Aeromatic. Basically no control in the cockpit but sets automatically for takeoff and cruise. Aeromatic.com 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 I have a brand new Ivo variable/constant speed prop, elec Would suit a J230 or other, Cost $5000...sell $2000 to clear it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyvulcan Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 I think Hugh’s Aircraft had a VP prop it fitted through hollow shaft on gearbox and had a vernier cable to adjust. Anyone know how it went We have one that is being fitted to a Rotax 912ULS. It will use Bolly blades. I don’t think any have been made since we got ours from Hughes Aircraft. If anyone has firsthand experience with the system that they can pass on before ours flies, any feedback would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raytol Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 The Hoffmann props have a very good system. 3 position, very light. A spring loaded three step collar gives the different blade pitches. Unfortunately, no local prop service centre available now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
