I had my prop overhauled this week and the prop shop had to charge the battery after the master was left on for a day or so. I picked up the plane today and found my engine monitor was reporting my RPM WAY to high. When I was at idle, 800 rpm or so, it would display 1600 to 1800. When I powered to 2500 rpm (verified by prop balancing equipment) it would show greater than 2700 and sometimes as high as 3000. As I made a short 30 minute flight the RPMs displayed would keep rising...about 10 per second. By the end of the flight I was over 15,000 RPM.
I called AFS and they thought it might need to be reset to factory defaults and then enter my personal settings. I haven't tried this yet but I hope they are correct. I figured I would post this here and see if anyone else has encountered a similar issue.
