Put a tach on it and see what throttle position gives you max static RPM. Usually it just max's out at approx 80% of WOT. I don't recall it actually lowering past that throttle position.
That's a good idea! The tachometer can resolve changes in RPM that the ear can't hear. I wonder how RPM varies as function of throttle position in the air. Real good argument for airborne telemetry.

I've thought about this some more. Since the engine RPMcan increase in the air due to the prop unloading, I'd set the EPA's for full travel, fly it and see how it works out.
