Default RE: YS-170CDI Flight Report
A 10% increase in rpm requires much more than a 10% increase in power.

A 10% increase in power may not be dramatically evident in flight. To increase airspeed
10% requires much more than 10% increase in power.

Hopefully Brian or some other egghead can fill in some rough numbers explaining the relationship between power and rpm.
Extra credit will be awarded for a colorful graph.
