What should my RPM be with a 0320 160, metal sensenich prop, need to look up size and pitch still
I'm only seeing 2260 on ground roll and climb out, placard on panel,says not to exceed 2600 but I'm reading numbers more like 2750 in other threads.
Just wondering where it should be. I've got to climb out of my 2100 ft runway pretty flat to achieve 90mph and getting cyl head temps at 400 to 410 before 1000 ft which I'd like to be cooler.
Top end is pretty good in my opinion at about 178 mph at low (3500) ft altitude (don't recall rpm ) though I really haven't pushed it much. To see if it'll run faster.
I just feel like the climb out is kind of anemic compared to the 180 hp archer I flew and my friends 7a with 195 hp constant speed prop climbs out like an animal.
Thoughts?
