Default RE: Throttle curve

Thanks for the responses.
OK then let me throw this out. Would it be reasonable to use an optical tach to figure out what the idle RPM is and what the full throttle RPM is, on the ground. Then use the optical tach to set up a throttle curve so that 1/4 throttle on the stick is 1/4 of the RPM difference between idle and full throttle RPM. Then 1/2 stick is 1/2 of the RPM difference between idle and full throttle RPM. And so on. Hope this makes sense.
