Sorry, but I believe 0% pitch does not mean to feather the propeller. To feather the prop means to position the blades totally parallel to the air flow so they do not create any drag. And so prop does not rotate by the relative wind created as the plane flies.



Feathering is only used in case of a totally lost engine (broken or hit by enemy fire) or being stopped on purpose for fuel saving.

And it seems not to work in any plane in CloD, IMHO.

Sorry for my English, I hope to have it explained clearly.
