Your thrust test is alittle flawed, in that there is leverage workong on your scale. I am not disputing that you have a good and powerful engine, but not quite as much thrust as your scale shows.

I know the stand is not NASA certified but could you explain more about how it is flawed.

The point of hook up to center of pivot point to point of contact with scales are the same, If anything I am losing thrust reading from air hitting the flat block with hook up.
