 Also, I'm tired of the "FIRST is a simulation of the real world"-- it isn't. If the real world was like FIRST, there wouldn't be any need for this organization. - cadandcookies [more] |

Re: using model aircraft digital optical tach on full sized aircraft
My point was that even with speed reduction, it is a constant. So if you know one RPM you know the other.
Fixed reductions are pretty common. CVTs (constantly variable transmission) is the red herring since I do think they get used on planes. I should watch putting too many thoughts in one paragraph. Lycoming IO series engines are direct direct drive though Last edited by FrankJ : 16-08-2012 at 15:33.
