Good to hear it worked well.
I will make a Clarification;
Don't get the analyze I made earlyer the wrong way,
I am sure there are other props that will be more effective, even an fixed
pitch prop can be better at specific design speeds, but the overall
performance will gain from the adjustable prop, specially on high
performance plane like this beauty, it is all about speed range.

Congratulations Paul !
Let us know how the propeller work when you don some more testing and
tweaking.

Actually it worked fine for the short operating range I used this
time. At takeoff it had real good punch (or maybe it was the combo of
220HP engine, electronic ignition...) . And when I reached about 110
kts I had to increase the pitch to keep it from over revving. The
adjustment was smooth and short meaning it had plenty of pitch left
for higher speeds. I kept the RG down and went no more than 120 kts.
BYW the Dynon EFIS-D0 worked well too - agreed with the backup
horizon, speed and altitude meters.
