[TowerTalk] Prop-pitch speed

I have several prop-pitch motors and the average time for the motor to
rotate one full turn is in the area of 1.5 minutes..

I just rebuilt another one and it takes 70 seconds for the motor to complete
one full turn..that is kind of fast ..

- the motor is a 24 volt motor
- the speed stamped on the unit is the correct one  .. matches all the rest
- no internal gears have been modified

This is a strange one !  
It is the cleanest one I have ever seen..just faster ...

When I use it with the M2 rotor control it over shoots the set point ...and
has to hunt..the other motors don't do this because they are slower...

Of course I can live with this but it anyone has any experience with this
please let me know..


Struggling to get all this up before IARU and I am not sure I am going to
make it..

Thanks for any help..
