Going to start working on my high performance endorsement today. This really helped de-mystify the prop control and made me feel a lot more confident going into the 182 for the first time. Thanks!

Thank you for the video. Just for purposes of demonstration I think that having the "camera" focused on the levers rather than the outside view of the landscape would be more beneficial. If you want to demonstrate how the levers work...show the levers and the resulting reaction by the rpm and manifold pressure. Graphics are crisp but there's a little bit of jumping around as you are preparing for takeoff. Good luck in future videos.

On a complex airplane, full throttle is not full power unless the prop is turning at maximum RPM. The formula for shaft horsepower is; Torque x Prop RPM x .00019=Shaft Horsepower. From the formula, it can be seen that if max RPM is not set, max power will not be achieved. Also, with the prop turning at high rpm, the blades are at a finer angle and produce more thrust.

You can think of a fixed piched propeller as a car that is stuck in Second or third gear. Second is great for circuits and climbing, but lower top speed. Third gear is sliwer to accelerate and climb, but great for cruising.

Question - on the dual engine, talking about feathering - for the failed engine - do you set the propeller for a fine or coarse pitch for the reduced drag?
@cecil4485

Coarse I think
@Henrybailliebrown
2 жыл бұрын
Feathering is when you bring the prop all the way back so technically coarse as it goes with the airflow so there is less drag. We don't actually use "coarse" though, we just say "feathering the prop" on multi engines :) Here's an article about it: www.skybrary.aero/articles/blade-pitch

My question becomes. When you set your prop rpm’s how do you know what to set your manifold pressure as? Like how do you know if your manifold pressure is set too low or too high in either cruise, a T/O or Landing config?
@makantahi3731

when i was on single engine, there was "settings", for TO-full power , low pitch, for climb-reduced TO power, low pitch, for cruise- some rpm(by pitch) and some man press(by power lever), for landing-idle, low pitch

When decreasing power after take off, at 1100' elevation, you reduce prop pitch RPM before manifold pressure. Isn't this the reverse of what you recommended earlier in the video?

On your climb out shouldn’t you have reduced throttle prior to reducing RPM with pitch to avoid high cylinder pressures?
@Henrybailliebrown
Жыл бұрын
Hey! Nice question! Prob depends on the aircraft but for the 40's I fly on, you reduce the RPM to 2400 (Max continuous) after you are 400-500 feet above ground. You keep full power because you are still in a climb. You can then reduce to a preferable power setting later for a cruise (typically 23', 2300rpm) Again I'm not a CFI and the procedure is different for different aircraft but again this is how it's taught on the 40's I fly on.

Wow I suck at replying to comments haha indeed, but in the DA40, like many other aircraft, you take off using the full prop, but after 400-500 AGL, you bring the prop back to 2400RPM, which is max continuous prop rated for the engine. Hope that helps!

as you accelerate to climb speed, rpm can raise too, so for climb you should correct rpm and man pressure , it can be done in same time if you are experienced, you act fadec

That's exciting! Congrats! (Again I'm not a CFI) BUT it depends on the aircraft you fly! For example, on the 40's I fly, a good typical cruise setting is 23' of manifold and 2300RPM, there is a chart for all aircraft in their POH for power settings and the fuel rates, etc... they give ;) So depending what you are flying, if you are going for economy, speed, etc... You choose the settings from there!

Sorta tired of the incorrect description that a prop pushes the plane forward...it PULLS the plane forward. A prop is a wing and it produces lift in the same way the horizontal wing produces lift. The direction of lift is above the plane and forward of the plane. So the prop is therefore lifting the plane forward, or pulling it thru the air.
@Tom--Ace
2 жыл бұрын
A wing partly pushes too, atoms colliding with it are pushed down and push the plane up (the wing is slightly angled to push air down) - or in case of a prop, push the plane forward. This is why even a non hydrofoil shape (eg a paper plane) can still fly. Wings do not just rely on hydrofoil profile for forces
@speedomars

@@Tom--Ace Not quite. A prop 'pulls' the plane thru the air the same way an airfoil in a sail pulls a boat thru the wind. This is why a sail boat can sail 'upwind'. But there are two physical forces at play in lift. 1. Newton's third law is: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. 2. Bernoulli's theorem describes the pressure difference created when you speed up airflow. The wing shape curves the airflow over the top of the wing producing lower air pressure. The bottom of the wing is flat and the air moves faster. Producing lift. A prop is shaped like a wing and produces lift the same way except in the horizontal direction in front of and ahead of the plane. So, when the plane is taking off, Newton's equal and opposite is more in play on the wing. When the plane is in level flight, Bernoulli's theorem is producing most of the lift. The prop is always a Bernoulli device. The prop has to OVERCOME the drag produced by the wind hitting the front of the prop. Likewise the wing has to overcome the drag produced as the wind strikes the front of the wing.
