Default Est. rpm using load figures? Is there a formula?

downunder,

1.) How did you figure out that 10x4 @ 16.5K = 1.3 hp?
2.) What formula did you use to do the prediction?

Your right I jumbled the #'s, and added another 0. ThrustHP seems to use Dia^4 * Pitch. Anyway please educate me on how you did this prediction.

The engine is an OS .32SX, with tuned a Mousse Can Pipe, I actually got ~ 16.8K w/10x4 apc.

Educate me please.
Thanks,
