What diameter of prop can you turn at 4000 rpm? A Volkswagen is NOT a good direct drive aircraft engine because it produces good power at 3200 to 3800 rpm. But it's a hell of a lot easier to put a redrive on a VW than an O-200. What is TBO of a O-200 at 4000 rpm? Except for a very esoteric and crowd-unappealing, masturbatory sport of F1 air racing no one is going to turn a O-200 at these RPMs. So you are talking smack. |
