... My question to the group is does anyone else have a spinner base plate that seems to be mounted off center causing a wobble when running? My spinner came...
Steve, Please keep the group apprised of your experience with the Titan folks, it's clear we're all concerned, and should be. I spoke with John Williams once...
Steve, thinking further here about your experience with your current prop. When the spinner came loose after 7 hrs, did the bolts shear off, or just loosen? Is...
Hello group, I'm just joining. I have an RV-7 with an WW 200RV and an IO-360 from Aerosport power with LSE on one side. I have about 180hrs on the prop....
Scott, who fixed your prop, Jim or the OH crew? Randy ... From: Scott Bilinski To: whirlwindpropellers@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday, March 31, 2005 2:04 PM ...
Randy, All my bolts where tight and the safety wire looked good, I just now try to move my spinner as part of the pre-flight and thats how I found it. The man...
Randy, Keep me posted about OSH, I still have a house on the airport up there and all my relation lives in Osh so I can hook you up pretty easy. Steve ... ...
I just posted some pics in the files section of my 200RV. I have about 180hrs on it. There is a lone pic of my bracket that is fractured in two places....
I looked at the paperwork on the Jhistroj governor that we received from Whirlwind and it is noted that the relief pressure is set at 2.25megaPascals, which...
The WW 151 does indeed need 425 psi due to its small piston. Sure you're doing the conversion correctly? I'd give WW in OH a call to verify. Randy ... From:...
I can tell you from personal experience with the 150 (same hub as 151) that you'll need more than 326 psi. You will lose control of the prop when your oil gets...
I get the following error message when I try to view the pictures. "The document you requested is temporarily unavailable because this group has exceeded its...
Building a 7A with IO360 (180HP). Does anyone have the weight and balance with a 200RV and this engine. I have heard that I will be tail heavy, but no one...
As a data point, I just checked the paperwork on mine, and the Test Record indicates a Relief Valve Pressure Pm=3.28Mpa at governor Nr=1750rpm. (3.28Mpa =...
And I just checked mine, 3.35 Mpa @ 1,750 rpm. This converts to 485.88 psi. Just perusing the manual there seems to be an adjustment screw in the base, but how...
Yes, there is an adjustment screw in the base. It is pinned in place with an easily removable locking device. The owners manual says that each turn clockwise...
The only downside of not having enough pressure available is that the engine could overspeed under a high power setting when the oil is hot. No oil pressure...
There seems to be a trend developing here. Previous problems with the spinner mounting bracket were reported by Jonathan Weiswasser a while back. Tobin, your...
Has anyone heard of any effort by Whirlwind to re-engineer this bracket or have any of the group tried some sort of fix? No, and I would encourage all 200RV...
Yesterday I talked to Jim at WW and Greg at Titan. Between the two of them over the phone, they quickly came up with the idea to rotate the brackets 90...
I sent the following email to WhirlWind today. I'll share any response I receive. Ron Schreck RV-8 WhirlWind Propellers; There have been several instances of...
Tobin- I really do not like their idea for a solution. Granted, I am no engineer or propeller designer, but as far as I can tell, the only thing holding my...
I spoke with Greg at Titan today and voiced my concern over the cracked bracket. His words to me were that he had only recently heard of this problem last...
I have not run my new 151 yet. I plan on going up to Camarillo this weekend to start the test flights. My back bulkhead bolts directly into the back of the...
From what Jim has told me the bolts holding on the backing plate (151) are as long as possible. The fiberglass backing plate will compress with time (25 hrs?),...
I was just wondernig if anyone can give any insight into the quality of the WW200C propeller including any positive or negative experiences Regards to all ...
