Hi Guys:
Does anyone have any photos showing a properly installed aft-mounted prop governor? My FWF kit came with a cable bracket that attaches at the governor mounting flange on the studs. With the governor mounted, the rounded flange of the governor is pointed to the top right. The lever is pointed down. I can't seem to find any orientation of the bracket that makes sense. It seems that the bracket intends for the lever to be pointed up, but if I turn the lever around the orientation for course/fine pitch settings will be reversed which means the bracket is then useless because I would need to bring the cable in from the opposite direction.
I've seen other brackets that attach using the screws on the lever end of the governor, but as mentioned mine attaches on the studs. The drawings I have show the screw-mounted bracket.
