Hi Greg,

       

       I use an A-750         vernier control with a blue knob from Aircraft Spruce for       the Jihostroj governor which controls my WhirlWind constant speed       prop. It has served perfectly since 2001. I do not remember the       length but if you need any pics of the setup, please let me know.

       

       Cheers, John

Europhiles,

For those that have a hydraulic governor such as jihostroj, commonly used on 914 constant speed applications, what did you use for the control cable / where did you get it? I cannot seem to find any info on the normal 914 parts sites.

Thanks, Greg F

Hi John,

 Yes, by all means send me some pics. My setup is for the  whirlwind as well. I especially want to know what kind of bracket you  used to hold the cable (near the governor) and how long the shaft is that  connects up to the swivel joint (I think I will have a tight turning  radius). A few pics should answer all my questions. I have a bracket for  another common aircraft that is supposed to work with the jihostroj, but it is  not a good fit. It can be modified however, but there appears to be a  bracket built-in at the top of the Rotax too that just might work, but I have  not found any info on it yet..it is in the approximate correct position to  potentially hold the cable.

  

 I would also like a pic of where you placed the knob, and  where the cabling went through the firewall as well. The cabling might be stiff  and I am not sure I can get it to exit the top of the engine cage, similar to  the throttle and choke cables.

 My intention is to use a lever, and not a vernier, but it is  all similar, except for the end. Vernier is the contingency plan if the lever  doesn't work well.

 Thanks much in advance!
