The measured data is almost too close to the Prop power calculator calculations to believe:

------------ Calculated ----- Measured ----- RPM

Battery 1 ----- 2398 -------- 2387 --------- 5641

Battery 3 ----- 2571 -------- 2567 --------- 5791

Battery 4 ----- 2703 ----- --- 2804 --------- 5889


I will have to fly many flights to see if I consistently use the same power over a variety of conditions. But it sure looks like I could use smaller batteries and maybe even a smaller motor. The average Watts are pretty low.
