Hello again,
Trying to sort out my Europa.
I have an Arblast pv 50 on the Europa I got from the USA. It has an LCL display and manual switch in the cockpit. Before I got a chance to fly with it my engineer had to replace the control box located in the engine bay as the battery had leaked and ruined the electronics. Now I have an aftermarket control box that uses current from the aircraft.
When I operate the switch in the a/c, it adjusts the propeller pitch and the number on the LCD display changes. The range is approximately 30 (fully fine) to approx. 130 (fully coarse). This may or may not correspond to the readings from the original controller. I take off and land with a reading of not less than 47 as this limits the max RPM to 5800......everything else is just a guess........any ideas?
Did a bit of googling and saw a Smart Electronics CSC-1/P (they don't appear to make them anymore) that seem to be compatible to the pv50. Are they any good and would I be able to get a second hand one? Would ideally like an Airmaster but have to make do with what I've got for the meantime.
