I've seen this asked many times here and the usual answer was always to make a v-pitch and map it to the throttle channel and then have the throttle follow a preset curve. While this worked ok, it was more of a "in-flight adjustable" at best. So I made a true constant speed model using a headspeed governor and using the knob for the rpm select. The governor controls the v-pitch servo. This way its constantly adjusting the pitch to maintain a constant RPM on the propeller, regardless as to where the throttle is. I uploaded the model to the swaps if anyone wants to see how its done. It could be done to almost any model though.

As a side note I think I found a couple bugs in the governor object and would love to go over them with any developers that read these forums.
