CH Throttle propeller lever

Hello,

it happens that, with Turbo Otter only, the propeller lever (only) reaches maximum effect, already, slightly above the "DECREASE" position (a little below the "R" of "PROPELLER") , so that I cannot use the full range, on the opposite, quite a little arc of that

it happens only with Turbo Otter; any other plane, either Milviz's or not, does not have this issue

I'm sorry whether I am missing something in the manual or the forum

thanks for directions

Hi,
I cannot see anything wrong in your pic.

DECREASE position must (and does) coincide with 1800 RPM, which is the lowest value recommended in flight. You can lower RPM even more,down to HIGH Pitch, which should give ~ 1450 RPM in flight.
