I took off about a 1 1/2 degrees from my prop and ran it up to just short of 6600
RPM at full throttle. Then I went to fly, and once again, I saw much less during
takeoff roll, maybe 6100. In cruise at wide open throttle and level I saw
a higher RPM, 6400. So, at least the static versus cruise RPMs make more sense
this time. I don't know why I twice have gotten a higher RPM right after installation
test than later flight test. Different conditions of some type, but
not
Remember, ANY change in Density Altitude will change the perceived power output from your engine. This goes for 2 stroke, 4 stroke, turboprop and pure jet. Write down the temp and altitude when doing tests, then compare, you will find what a difference it makes.
