New to looking at the 13b. What would be typical RPM's for takeoff and cruise for this engine?

Thanks

2.8:1 gear box 7500 RPM take off and 6000 RPM cruise.
This is not at all like a piston engine. Most piston engines are getting
very near hand grenading at 7500 RPM while the rotary is not even breathing hard.
It is more like a turbine or an electric motor  than it is a piston engine.
