I had a similar problem wit= h my MVP 50 except it was fuel pressure and MAP. The problem in both cases= was wiring connectors. That is where I would start. Cheap wiring connect= ors are the curse of aviation reliability. Craig Berland IV-P N7VG Today's 2hr flight was normal in all respects with the single exception tha= t immediately after liftoff, the MVP-50 began screaming 'check RPM'. The RP= M display was close to 4000 and fuel flow spiked. Nevertheless engine sounds remained normal. Sure got my attention. At 6:29:28 and just as the gear started to come up is when the RPM indicati= on spiked for all of about 5 seconds. Haven't seen this before. What would the common, everyday prop over speed sound like?? not that I eve= r want to hear it.... Angier Ames N4ZQ
