Thanks! Just to clarify- I move the prop pitch lever rather than the throttle to adjust rpm?

Mixture should remain the same generally?

Edit: Just went up for a flight (cross country quick mission), that worked great, thanks! The other hurricane is a bit easier to keep the RPM at a nice level and the engine shakes a lot less (only on start up now, rather than in flight).

With this hurricane, mixture is full back = rich? When would I use it pushed forwards, other than a little bit at takeoff- at high altitudes where air is thinner so less fuel is needed?
