This is a BS question, but I'm curious.
![]() I was looking at some hydraulic motors the other day and was wondering if a pump and motor could be used to drive a prop. A crazy example; two hydraulic motors and a couple pumps (powered with a mazda 13b maybe ??) to power something like a Cessna 337 in-line thrust type aircraft. Understanding weight would be an issue, I'm wondering how it would, or could ,work. I was looking at an Eaton motor that was rated at (up to) 3200 RPM @ about 120 ft. lb of torque. Weight was 20 lbs. They have a pump (48 lbs) that moves 42 gpm @ 4000 psi. Is it possible? Single place would be fine. ![]() |
