I'm about to commit to a prop governor and am trying to determine the weight savings enjoyed by the PCU 5000X compared with the alternatives: MT or Macauley.

I've established that the PSU 5000X weighs in at 2.2 lbs and is more compact but cannot determine the weight of the others

MT Propeller Governor P-830

2.05 lbs. 3.39"h x 3.00"w x 4.92"l. 8 in-lbs torque req at 2700 rpm, 220 psi, SAE 40, 40F.

I've had both the MT P420 and the PCU 5000 on my RV8. Can't tell a difference in weight. Its probably much less than a pound. Insignificant IMHO...

Thanks Guy's
just goes to show that you can't always believe a sales pitch.

Who would have thought?
