Q

What is the difference between the FCU and the TD control system?

A

Fuel control unit: schedules FF based on engine inlet temp, pressure, RPM and throttle position.
The TD control system refines for TIT and throttle positions when not in NULL, provides overtemp protection

Q

What is the low pitch stop and what prop angle does it act from?
On the ground?
Beta flags occur at?

A

Prevents an engine overspeed due low pitch angle by stopping blade angle decreasing below 23 deg in flight.
It should retract in the ground range unless already pitchlocked. (Beta flags at 15-17deg)
