Throttle governor
Picked up my 360hr R44 Raven 2 from a 50 hr service today.
When I wound the throttle up and the governer took over as normal, it wound the power up much higher than normal, certainly at the top of the green arcs and continung up.
I closed the throttle, wound it up again and it was perfectly normal, stabilising in the middle of the green arcs.
I couldn't repeat the fault.
I spoke to the engineers and they had replaced a throttle rod. They were certain though that this was a coincidence and nothing to do with my experience.
All are mystified, never heard of this fault.
I did not, repeat not, accidentally wind the throttle up, the governor was responsible.
Any theories?
