I have spent around 3 hours today in the E4 On line. I was swapping between Auto and Manual as the situation required. No issues at all.
In general I run the prop pitch as follows. Take Off Full fine 12 O clock Manual. After Take off at around 250Kmh drop it in to AUTO If climbing at Max ATA leave it in AUTO If climbing at reduced ATA say 1.25 then you do better at MANUAL with 2300RPM Combat AUTO Hi speed Bugouts AUTO initially then once basically going MANUAL and fine tune. Landing ... Once on Final Manual Full fine .... 12 O'Clock. When running Super Hi speed say at Low level following a descent in AUTO then intelligent ATA use is required to keep RPM up since RPM is determined by ATA with AUTO engaged. A bad example is to beat the crap out of Hawkinge  say at 700KMH+ at low ATA then pull up. AUTO will demand Low RPM (Around 8:30 on the clock) and when you start the pull up and select max ATA it takes a while for the prop to wind up. A Better way is to arrive with High speed and High ATA therfore High RPM so when you start the pull the prop is already pretty fine. In essence Avoid Hi speed low ATA situations in AUTO if you have any intention of subsequently zooming and wanting max power output in the zoom.AUTO is a great aid but not a Panacea, use both modes to your advantage.

well but for me the issue remains...the manual prop pitch works fine for some few minutes, but after a certain period(i estimate 2-3 minutes) it acts suddenly strangely.the rate of the change is suddenly pretty slow.its approximately only half the speed as the usual rate.and it keeps moving for a pretty long time,even if you stopped pushing it.the clockwise moves on for about half a circle after leaving the button.
i cant believe that its only me with this issue.i tried it on the other bfs, but didnt encounter the problem. i tried with the E4 in several missions, to ensure that its not a problem connected to a somehow corrupted self made mission but it appears every time....

Ok, there is something rong for me too on the E4...
Autoprop: In my case, the autoprop, was reducing RPM as it should, but if I have needed higher RPM, it was not increasing the RPM, that means, I flew around with 1900 RPM with 330Km/h, flat run....! -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Manuel prop: I asigned the button for turning it off in the second flyt ,the automatic, as David is reporting, the manual prop pitch is TOO slow if you change him, dosent matter, UP or DOWN! Switched right away to the E1, total different behave, as it should!

prop-pitch bug
ok...to support my arguments i uploaded this vid.
i know the recording tool in Cliffs of Dover is bugged and the gauges dont work correctly due to it(it would deserve its own bug report), but i think you can still see the different speed of the clockwise. furthermore in the second part of the vid, i stopped changing the pitch at exactly 10 o'clock, but the clockwise moves until 11:15. the vid shows the behaviour of the manual pp.
