I am wondering what RPM anyone with a 160hp with a Catto 3 blade are getting on climb out at 1000' density altitude. I cant remember the pitch on mine but it is more of a combo or climb prop.
On full throttle take off I am in the 2200- 2300 range. Once I get up a bit higher I mostly cruise around 2400-2550. If I am over 6000' I can get 2900 or maybe higher. I have a self limit of 3000 though I contacted Catto and they said I could go higher if the engine will push it along.
Are my numbers reasonable? I wondered if I am a little slow on take off at 2200 to 2300 until I am airborne. I upload to Savvy and have not been told of any issue.
Thanks.
