912 ULS WOT RPM
in 912 / 914 Technical Questions

Hi Roger - I have read various other discussion topics regarding ideal RPM settings for 912 ULS engines. Just some clarity for me please.
It seems the "ideal" RPM to achieve you've described at 5650rpm at WOT (wide open throttle) in "straight and level" flight at my most common cruising altitude. Is this correct?
If this is correct, am I correct in assuming that putting the nose down on my Zodic 601XL while measuring this, which will increase the RPM above 5650rpm, results in a further RPM increase which "could" result in the RPM increasing over the max 5800rpm allowed if I'm not careful. However, would that then be the correct fixed pitch prop setup which I should keep?
Thanks! Kevin
