Hello all. Quick question....

I changed the pitch of my prop for a cruise setting, so I lost about 200-300' min doing so at 1100lbs. At 1100lbs, (1300 is gross) I saw 1200-1300'/min at 1100lbs. With the pitch change i see between 600-1100'/min depending on the day. What impact would adding 200lbs to bring it to gross do you think? My concern is whether it will climb or not. It's a ROTAX 912ULS.

IM flying gross tomorrow am from a 4000' runway. I'd LOVE some feedback on this. Hope I'm not getting myself in over my head at gross. Guess the only way to find out is try.

ALL COMMENTS APPRECIATED!!!!!

Thanks!

Update*******

Flew the plane 10lbs under gross. DA was 675'. 17 degrees Celsius.

Climbed at 700-850'/min. Even did some climbs from 3000' and saw almost 1000'/min up there at 18 degrees. So, all in all, seemed to climb fine at gross. I'm happy with it.
