Default RE: Too much oil.

ORIGINAL: Lille-bror
Test results using different % of oil:
Well done, it's good to see actual test results and, like Pe, I'm not a believer in skimping on oil. I think your HP figures are way off though because you can't have varying HP at the same revs with the same prop but the running characteristics are the more important finding here. Like you, I've got a GS45 that I use as a bit of a test mule . On 25% all castor (no nitro) it spins an APC 10x6 at 14,600 which I think isn't too bad.
