Guys John Finlay mentions the addition of an in-flight adjustable prop to use in conjunction with your turbo. The way I understand it, the motor that has a turbo with the waist gate set to X manifold pressure will produce Y power regardless of it's altitude (at a fixed throttle setting). How do you prevent over revving the motor at altitude and still use the extra power that the turbo produces without an in-flight adjustible prop? Sure you could set the manifold pressure lower or run at a lower throttle setting but that negates using the turbo in the first place???? To me, using a turbo without an in-flight adjustable prop is not worth the effort and expense. Am I missing something?
