You are probably correct Neil. I was thinking the scale factor was used differently on that function. Yes, try increasing to 3.78. To get the first initial increase, bump it up by something over 50% which will cause the EM3 to add 1 + the percentage indicated.

Tracy,
Not sure
how your monitor counts, but changed the scale factor from 1 (standard) to .265
as suggested (divided 1 by 3.78) and now at 2000rpm I am getting a reading
of 0.5 gal PH which should be litres!! Sure makes it
economical! Seems like I should multiply by 3.78 as that would
seem more like it. What do you think ? Neil.

I'd start by dividing the current scale factor of FF channel by 3.75 , plug
that value in there and see if it looks right. I'll try it on the bench when I
get a chance.

Tracy,
Prop is a prince P tip, 70” dia by 90” pitch. Any
suggestions as to what numbers I can alter to convert US gal. to litres?
Somehow I have to get the readings up 3.75 to get litres.

ONLY? 6300 is at the HIGH end of normal static. I would
be more concerned about over Reving at top speed if this were a 200+ MPH
plane. It will probably be about right for the glastar
though.
Be happy, celebrate! BTW, what are the numbers on that
prop? L x P?

All,
Looks like I am finally connected
after many attempts.. I have a P ported renesis in a glastar that is
ready to fly. Tuning the motor yesterday to find that I cannot get the
motor revs over 6300. I suspected the prop (prince fixed) is too big,
but am assured that that is normal as a static load. Lonnie suggests
that once moving the extra revs will appear. How do I tune the motor
for the top end revs? Any advice?
Neil.
