Plots of power absorbed by props of various sizes and rpm?
Hi
Anyone know of any analyses of prop dia, pitch and rpm? I have the table of parameters from the Astro Flight electric flight manual which gives power in watts for various combinations but the power measured is much lower than stated I/C engine performances. I know that a bit of poetic license goes with most adverts but there does seem to be considerable discrepancies and I wonder if anyone has done other parametric studies?
