also called tilt sensor, clinometers or slope sensors, are designed to measure the angle of an object with respect to the force of gravity.

results from the fact that, when a propeller blade produces thrust, the majority of the thrust produced is exerted ahead of the blade's axis of rotation.

Anytime multiple engines and propellers are installed on an aircraft, the potential for excessive vibration and noise exists.

In the other application, the power section is driven by a sepa­rate (blank or blank) that is not mechanically connected to the gas generator portion of the engine.

As technology advanced, the two-position propeller was improved to allow the operator to select any blade angle between the high and low pitch stops.
