Electrical Constant Speed Propeller?

[alfdoj]

Dear All

I have purchased a great 4 last year with very few hours on the engine since OH (12 total)
I can see that the O-320-E2A I have used to have governor and must have flown with oilbased CS.

However - the builder did not build the "foot space" so I can fit a oil governor (or can I?) on the back of the engine.

So I have thought of an electrical solution as I also get a very light solution - and very easy to service. I have looked at AX Sport that comes out to 8800 USD and am waiting for the price on Airmasters.

Does anyone here have good experience? Good advice?

PS: It is not a project for this year - so I am in no hurry

Thank you in advance

I believe the 0-320E2A is fixed pitch. So the only option would be to use an electric constant speed prop.

It is rebuilt and has all options ready for oil CS - but I would prefer electrical due to lower service req. and lower weight
