Hi,



This question is for those with flying RV-10's. Has

anyone noted the minimum power setting to maintain

level flight? Did you note the airspeed, altitude and

% power (MP/RPM) or fuel flow (leaned or not) +

loading conditions (gross, light, etc)?



Has anyone constructed a power required curve with

more data points?



100%    211 mph  

85%     201 mph (8000 ft, 2200 lb 260 HP per Van's)

75%

65%

55%     180 mph (same)

45%

35%

25%

15%     ??



Thanks!

Eric (40150 spending more time on my IFR than building...))
