Hello,

Great videos! I'm looking at turboprops and it's hard to find good data. Kingtech specify a specific power output at 5.2kW but that's it. I can se in you video you get ~5500rpm on the 22x12 Mejzlik - but you seem to have problems with the fuel pump and the engine does only rev to 160k, not the 170k advertised??!

Comparing this to the Xicoy X45tp it stated 7000prm on the same 22x12 Mejzlik(!), with an idle 650rpm lower too. The 22x12 test are not available on video but there are a pulling test with 24x10 and it does sort of as many kilos as the K45tp does pounds. Likely there are something wrong with the K45?

I think you also were doing some videos with the X45tp, but no test runs with proper data yet? Also the X45 are available in two gear ratios and only ONE of the YT videos ever specify which gearing they use LOL....(I later also saw that you in the middle of one video mentioned which one it was you were playing with)

Any thoughts?
