Default RE: 3D Proq question...

Thrust calc assumes perfect conditions, and estimates efficiencies of props. Real world is different. EG big cowls can reduce thrust substantially. Only way to really measure it is to hook it up to some fish scales.

Best thing is to try different props and see which you like best.
