Constant Speed Prop Explained in Plain English (Start Here!) - Subscribe to Airplane Academy
Most people go straight to the prop governor when trying to learn the constant speed prop and honestly I think that can just confuse you before you understand the broader picture. In this video I explain the why behind constant speed props and how you practically use them. Later, if you want to deep dive the schematic of a prop governor, you'll have context and it can actually stick :)

RV10 - Build Section 37 Fuel System - Video 54 - Subscribe to Pilot Rhino
I am basically running a fully custom fuel system. Because I am using a Electronic Fuel Injection, we need a fuel return system, that requires a different pump and fuel selector which basically throws the entire vans plan out the window.
