Wakefields. I could not remember that name to save my......sanity.


I did stop to do the proper testing before posting since I have an example 
aircraft. After a few series of stopped prop vice free wheeling prop, (I was 
testing in the living room) I was advised by the (true) head of houshold to take 
my testing program to the barn where there is much more room. However the OAT 
in the barn is so low right now (7 degrees) that I fear that it would skew my 
results, so I ended the test series with the results that I posted.
