I assume you have set up the Smart controller to 5700rpm for climb and also
checked
the Pitch micro switch rings in manual making sure you can get the fine
pitch needed
for the higher RPM, A small Allen key grub screw on the rings needs to be
slacken
and then move the rings just a fraction, re tighten and mark so you can
return to the original setting if necessary,
