Ferg,
For what it is worth, mine stays in the constant speed mode, so I would
position the manual/auto switch where ever there is room, you probably
will not normally need to use it.
I don't have a pitch indicator, but would not think this needs to be in a
prominent position.
The RPM control selector needs to be in sight and easily accessible.
The reverse switch is probably best located in the baggage compartment !

Cheers,
I am in the process of installing the subject item, an
SR3000/3 Constant Speed unit. There are several control modules involved
in the installation and I am trying to rationalise the siting of these on
a standard mono instrument panel ? somewhat cramped and needing careful
planning.
While I have read the manual several times, I find it hard to
calculate how often (and therefore where) each item should be used.
If you are familiar with the use of a 3000 or similar device,
would you consider advising me where you would put each module to permit
ease and frequency of use? This comprises CS RPM control selector,
CS/manual switch, pitch indicator and a guarded Reverse pitch switch ?
yes, reverse. I know, I know.
Happy landings
