What holds the propeller brake engaged at engine start
Gearbox oil pressure, when RPM exceeds 23 percent it disengages from bleed air, and is engaged below this speed
When does NTS happen?

What does the low pitch stop do for you?
Located in the dome and mechanically stops the piston from decreasing blade angle below approx. 23%
What does the Electronic Propeller Goverining do?
