I changed my Sensenitch prop hub today. When I pulled the blades and the nylon pitch control piece out of my old hub, I found that all 4 screws that hold the metal pitch limiting ring had come loose. They had backed out between 1/2 and one full turn. Total time in service was 45 hours.
I don't think the screws could back all the way out since they probably would be stopped by the nylon pitch control piece. It was of note that all the screws had come loose though. If you do take your hub apart at some point, you might want to check these. I can't see any reason to take the blades out just to check them.
