I need to position my MT prop governor to set the opening in the fwd baffle on the left front area of the engine. I know that you loosen the six screws that retain the governor arm. You only loosen the screws - DO NOT REMOVE. Then you can rotate the arm part of the prop governor. This related to me by Jurgen at MT.

Question: What is the final position of the arm on the MT prop governor?

It looks like the passive position of the arm should be in the 10:00 position as you look at it from the pilot side. Could anyone already flying please set me straight on this.........

Did you ever find out the starting 'clocking' position. I want to do this, this weekend also.

I looked in my archives from OSH-08 and found some pictures that indicate that the arm should be in the 10:00-10:30 position. See my prior comments on rotation. You want the arm to be able to pull down without too much fore and aft movement on the bushing

One thing that this taught me was that my 200+ pictures of RV10's that I took at OSH were a real help in finishing this project. If you are a newbee, I cannot tell you how valuable the pictures that you take at OSH (of RV10's) are in finishing this plane

Deems and Tim are my baseline when it comes to thousands of pictures.

A picture is worth a 1000 words. Thanks
