My IVO is a three blade, in-flight adjustable. Each blade is 33 inches from the center of the hub, thus a 66 diameter. I have a new set of blades in my other hangar that, IIRC
are 34 inches, however, I hesitate using them as I will be concerned about prop clearance from the ground.
Geesh, this aging thing is for the birds, but, IIRC my pitch range is the 45 - 105.
There is a way to limit the range which I will likely need to do once I understand how everything works together, that should allow me to limit the flatness of the prop to a more useful starting point.

Great to hear Chris !!...........Hang in there.........Curious as to your "IVO" diameter,number of blades and what pitch range
your blades are (30 to 90 or 45 to 105) ??.............<:)
