HI Kevin,
I have a Lycoming 0235-N2C Engine with a Sensenich 2 Blade, Carbon Fiber Prop. Model # 2EM6/C72AE. The prop system has a hub where you can insert cartridges that set the pitch of the blades. I started with a 50 pitch but just changed to a 60. I have not flown yet on the new paitch but the static RPM dropped from over 3,200 to 2,475. Lycoming states 2,800 Max RPM. Everyone is telling me that when I am in the air my max RPM will increase so I am curios to see what it will be when I get back up in the air.
How far along are you? All I can say is, "stick to it." First flight makes it all worthwhile. Anyone can go out and buy a plane but when you build your own...and then fly it..you are in a very special club.

Kevin,
I got a pseudo answer to your question.
why don't you contact me off list
bradfnp@gmail.com
Hi Kevin. I really don't use this site much nor do I use most social media. We have almost completed our 601HDS, just the bubble left. We are in Durham. Stop by any time. I belong to EAA 897 at Lake Ridge air park in Durham 8NC8. There is a fellow who moved here from FL about a month ago and has a nice 650 with about 170 hrs on it. Let me know off list if you want the contact or want to visit. Best to email directly at:
airvair601@yahoo.com. Good luck phill
Hey Kevin, I'm back in Wilmington. My regular email address is don.white@realetech.com lets try to figure a time to get together, I'd really like to borrow your DVD's and see the plane! Thanks!
Cool Kevin, I live on the south side of Wilmington, almost to Carolina Beach (Old Chimney). I belong to the EAA, and belonged to the Stag Park chapter probably 15 years ago. Haven't been up there in years. I'd like to see your 650, I imagine a lot of the building techniques are similar to those in the 750. You can reach me at 352-9693 Thanks man!
