RE: Propeller thrust question.
that is obvious -
what I meant is that a high static thrust prop just may provide the best forward speed also -for a given plane -
without getting in to formulas (which I detest in explanations ), a very draggy craft may do do best with the best "thrust" prop"
I have set up far too many models to doubt that the dynamic setup can ONLY be setup in dynamic conditions .
to clarify - unless the plane is tested under real world conditions - the
formulas are simply wild assed guesses.
(Tho formulas derived from past tests are in the right direction )--
increasing power is not usually an option.
I made a thrust test setup for smal electrics -which provides info very usuable for 3D electrics - it does not do much for the flat out speed enthusiast tho - that type flying requires lots of fine tuning in both arframe and powerplant - been there - done it .
