How much static thrust ...




I can't imagine any answer that would be of any value to any purpose
unless your goal is to lock the brakes and use the prop blast to sweep
out your hangar. Thrust while static is of no practical use. I'd
think that thrust while in motion might be more enlightening.

The one place that static thrust is of interest is a glider tug - you need
to get things moving before the glider wing drops.
