With an adjustable blade hub, the dynamic adjustment of ptich during testing is possible, for example, for stopping manoeuvres. The adjustable blade hub achieves the change of blade pitch with a multiphase motor with two limit switches built in which switch off the engine at ± 30° adjustment. The average pitch is marked on the inner hub. The angle is measured with a potentiometer. The hub is mounted on a carbon ring. The control data and the values of the potentiometers are transmitted via a slip ring assembly.
