Default RE: measuring for left thrust

ORIGINAL: Geistware

Put your propeller horizontal and measure the length from the tail to the left side then from the tail to the right side. Find the difference between the two lengths and divide it by half the propeller length. THe arc sine of this number is the angle of thrust.
That's really funny! Ha! Ha! Arc sine, yet! This is U.S. Most can't calculate engine capacity given diameter and stroke!
