The TBO (Time Between Overhaul) of the Glorieuse inflight variable pitch propeller is 1200 hrs.
This is the same as the Rotax 915iS engine.
OVERHAUL
recommended at 1200 hrs
✗ Disassembly
✗ General inspection of the propeller
✗ Change 14 bearings (rotation transmission supports)
✗ Change of pitch control axes (6)
✗ Change of 3 blade axes (taking over the centrifugal force)
✗ Reassembly
Propeller overhaul kit = 420 €
Indicative working time = 5 hrs
The budget for this overhaul is very reasonable, as is the time required to complete this work (especially compared to competing propellers 😀).
