Kevin Posted December 22, 2015 Report Posted December 22, 2015 I got called by a shop who replaced an Edo-Aire governor with a Hartzell governor (I think it was a D-1-6). Apparently, the Edo-aire governor control arm moves CCW to low pitch (High RPM), CW to high pitch (Low RPM). The Hartzell governor is the opposite. The customer needs to re-rig his cable, re-orient the governor hear, or something to allow this governor to be used. Any ideas? I'm having trouble seeing how this could happen, or not be addressed in the Money manual, as the M20F was TC'd with either governor.
N601RX Posted December 22, 2015 Report Posted December 22, 2015 Usually the arm or back cover can be rotated 180 deg. If your having to buy a new governor look at the PCU5000. Its a small compact design that is new, not overhauled.
Kevin Posted December 22, 2015 Author Report Posted December 22, 2015 Right now it's a done deal. Edo-Aire out, Hartzell in. Theyre just trying to figure how to make it work with the control calbe.
