Calculate Level Flight Speed
Propeller's Pitch: in
cm
Static RPM: rev / minute
Static Pitch Speed: mph
km/h
Appx. Level Flight Speed: mph
km/h
Note:
The Level Flight Speed is calculated based on an
empirical formula and is therefore only approximate.
However, it's close enough for this purpose.
A compensation factor of 20% is used to adjust
the static rpm and pitch to the flight values.
An aircraft with a very low drag may exceed
the speed value shown, whereas an extremely
draggy aircraft may fly slower.
