A pitch change actuation system for varying a propeller blade pitch includes: an actuator body defining an interior volume; and a chamber separator located within the interior volume of the actuator body and dividing the interior volume into a first chamber and a second chamber, the two chambers being fluidly separated by the chamber separator. The first and second chambers are configured to receive hydraulic fluid. The actuator body is configured to translate relative to the chamber separator in response to a difference in hydraulic pressure between the first chamber and second chamber; and the translation of the actuator body is configured to effect a change in propeller blade pitch.
