Constant Speed Propellers Explained. It's a pretty ingenious design that meant that the prop would automatically be at a high rpm when the plane was moving slowly (takeoff, landing, climbs), and would automatically move. So if we pitch back up, the governor will maintain rpm by decreasing the propeller blade angle. Some aircraft use an electric propeller system that allows the pilot to select in flight a setting in the cockpit, such as takeoff or cruise, while the engine is operating. In the aircraft, this process happens instantaneously, so that the flyweights remain at their equilibrium, and the rpm doesn’t go up or down, hence the term constant speed propellor. A constant speed propeller gives you the ability to select the engine and propeller speed you want for any situation. Here is the last important step in flying an airplane with a constant speed propeller. We need to slowly move the propeller lever to the full forward position before landing so that in case.
