Hi folks,
I am new to the site and have a question about the Macchi C 200. Does anyone have clear photos of the pitch control govenor for the prop on the Fiat A-74 engine as installed in the Macchi C 200 and the Fiat CR-42? Any info on the plumbing around the nose gear case is appreciated.

Thanks
Gary

Thanks for the replies guys! So... it is safe to say that the prop govenor was controlled by a cable with some type of bowden tube? Nice shots seems like something easy to make for my build.

Thanks again
Gary
