I learned something that hopefully will save someone some
worry. Last Sunday I ran my engine for the first time and took the RPM to 1500 and tryed to cycle the prop nothing
happened, to make a long story short I should have taken
the engine up to over 2000RPM to make the prop cycle.
Not sure if this is on the first start or if it's a full feathering
prop butnI can tell you it had me going for a couple of days.
The result was I took the RPM to 2200 and it worked fine,
hope my experiance can save someone else some time.
By the way Scott Becker at Lancair was the first to
mention this as a possibility
