TES111 Posted July 12, 2003 Share Posted July 12, 2003 Does anyone have a ball park figure for thrust on a 200 horse lyco w/ a 3 blade prop set for cruise? Dust I know your going w/ a 200 horse set up. I know thats alot of specy info w/ alot of variables to include but it does not need to be exact. Is 300 LB of thrust a close figure or will it be alot higher than that? Just curious. TES111 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No4 Posted July 12, 2003 Share Posted July 12, 2003 200hp max @75%power=150hp*0.8(prop efficiency) = 120 Thrust HP at the prop. THP=Thrust * TAS(ft/sec)/550 180 mph= 264 ft/sec 120=(x * 264)/550 120=0.48x Thrust x = 250 lb's Quote The Coconut King Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
