Some flight data for you guys that like such stuff.
Just ~1 hour to go for the 40 hour test period. Yesterday was the high altitude data run (up to 17.5K?). As part of this run I wanted some raw data to develop cross country cruise setting. At first blush it looks like ~14.5K? is where, for the same speed, efficiency starts to fall off.
For these typical high speed cruise settings I got 27.3MPG at 14.5K?, then slowly dropping off to 26.5MPG at 17.5K?.
I?m sure I could enhance the MPG numbers at slower speeds, but shoot fire, we fly RVs!
14.5K? screen shot attached.
