Mine are different
Please forgive my ignorance, but is that 180 or 200 hp? My 180 hp 7A with Catto 3-blade climbs best at IAS of 110 kts, angle or rate. The reason or problem is that I have the prop set up for 2700 rpm at full throttle at 8000 or above, so I only get around 2200 to 2250 on climb out.
If the prop were not set up for cruise as it is, then I would be able to climb at a steeper angle and lower speed.
