There is no way to know what is the correct prop without knowing how many
rpms your turning at wide open throttle. You select prop based on max rpms.
You want the engine to run in the power band.


Now this is interesting. I've always assumed that the power band is
exactly that - a range of RPM in which the real horsepower is being
generated - it would follow that the power band would fall off going
towards WOT rather than being the peak of the band.

Yes/No?

Later,

Tom
