Ok, Perry

   I found a diagram with how pitch is measured.  It looks like its
measured from a surface parallel to the face of the propeller to the chord
of the blade at each station point.  I will take those measurements at 3"
stations out from the hub center line.

Come to think of it Ed. Just moving the stick back and fourth
while the tail is tied to a tree with the long rope and full
engine RPM will bob the nose up and down.

Swinging the tail from side to side will accomplish the same goal.
