I have the wop3 Spitfire installed OK, in the cockpit I can see the prop pitch lever move but the RPMs do not change, they change at the same time with the throttle. (if I set the boost at +2 then rpms are approx 2000, boost at 5 ,rpm at 2300 no matter where the pitch lever is)
I have no auto mixture and all other settins as pper the instructions. I have reinstalled the wop3 and still the same.
please can you advise...
regards Jorge

Have you changed the proellor to the 3 blade or is the spitfire loading with the two blade? The two blade is fixed pitch and the prop lever is disabled (but will move) when that is fitted,
