I would like comment from you RV fliers out there who fly aerobatics regularly up to the limit of the capability and design of the RV7 and RV8 and have an inverted oil system fitted and a constant speed propellor.
Most CS propellors go to fine pitch and hence overspeed in the event of loss of oil pressure.
Do you ever get propellor surge or overspeed from loss of oil to the governor in any of the aerobatics flown in the RV like verticals or stall turns or inverted flight when using a starndard type Hartzell or MT or Whirlwind propellor?
Do you feel it necessary to fit an aerobatic constant speed propellor with appropriate governor that goes to coarse pitch in event of loss of oil pressure?
If so which propellor would you recommend?
Regards Morris Tull.
