Hi- question: When the Prop Control lever is moved does it basically tighten or loosen the speeder spring so that it actually puts the flyweights in a initial position (simplified I know)-a tilted position, like up or down-which acts as a lever arm to lift up the pilot valve or let it down?
Also, is the housing for the pilot valve rotating with the engine and in turn turning the flyweights (pilot valve is stationary)?
