Mike, Here are my numbers for a rather heavy RV-6A so don't know how much
they are worth to your project.
1. Max 6100 (192 MPH TAS) 2000 MSL
2. Max Cruise 5800 (181 MPH TAS) 7500 MSL
3. Economy Cruise 5300 (160 MPH TAS) 7500 MSL
4. Static 5250
my prop is a 68x72 from Performance Propellers almost identical to Tracy
Crook's, I have 1" more ptich than Tracy.
Hope this helps. Best bet is to have it over pitched slightly as it is
possible to take some of the pitch out rather than added it back.
