Default RE: UIUC Propeller Database (100+ props and growing)

ORIGINAL: MSelig

I just wish we had posted before now. It took awhile!
I tried three attempts to make some gadget that could be used to help filter/search the data.
But that never worked out, so end result is just data. Lots of data.
I made a simple thrust stand which read thrust (in grams /ounces) and power consumed to acheive thrust (in watts amps and volts) and the rpm read with a simple optical meter.
Is there any other info needed to determine prop efficiency?
PS I am not good at intrepreting data so I had to do it thru example.
