Brief Description:  1. Prop Cable

First task today was to get the prop control cable installed. I was able to get it installed in less than an hour I did not install the eyeball since I need to be able to move the throttle quadrant around to install the other cables, with the eyeball installed I would not be able to move the cable as much. The length is a little on the long side. I will have to have a dip in the cable on the cockpit side to that the cable will not interfere with the engine mount, the able of the governor side anchor point is not ideal but it works.

I was able to get full travel from fine pitch to course pitch without hitting the stops on the control quadrant. The plans lead you to believe that you may not get full travel and to adjust to get the full travel at the fine pitch end since the full course in not needed in flight
