There's been mention lately of ground adjustable props. If you've got an O-200 a CS prop is the cat's meow but for VW.Revmaster-powered KR's I would suggest a variable pitch prop is completely unnecessary. My first KR had a Revmaster 2100 with the Maloof CS prop. The controller never did work

That R-2300 sure seems like an ideal engine for a KR - designed to get it's power at lower RPM. This is ideal for a number of reasons. The higher the RPM the more heat is generated from friction and heat, besides being totally wasted energy, is the VW's worst enemy. I have a friend who went
