I still have a hydro slow down when going up an incline at full throttle. I have to nudge forward the hydro to keep a steady speed. Have done all the adjustments with neutral creep and all that. Notice it more when the hydro is good and warm after an hour or so of mowing. Still not used to a hand operating lever, but am getting used to it. Will be putting in a different used hydro later this year to see if that makes a difference.
The Hydrostatic Transmission is a type of drive (a pump & fluid), just as a Gear Drive is a type of drive. The Hydrostatic Transmission is just that, a transmission and NOT cruise or speed control.

All my Hydro's loose speed going up a hill, just like a gear drive. This is NORMAL.
