The covering weight chart was very useful, as was the thrust calculator . For engine offset, it's pretty simple math. I am a big advocate of education. I believe that everyone except the learning disabled should know algebra and trig by the time they leave high school. Tip speed? v=rw (w-omega or rotational speed, r-radius). High school physics.
