Hello everyone, I have been flying a 200 with a newly installed 3 blade Hartzell.
My question is what do guys typically run their prop settings at for given altitudes.
Our airport elevation in Alberta is 4000 ft ASL and I typically cruise at 7-9000 ft. The other day we flew over the rocks to Vancouver at 13,500 for a fresh paint and interior. I think the airplane likes 2400 RPM but I am curious to hear what others have been cruising at for MP/RPM settings. Typically at my normal cruise altitudes I am getting 22-23MP/ 2400.
I would assume from what I have read that the dreaded "red" operating range has been eliminated by going to the 3 blade?
Any info or insight would be appreciated!
