Ed;
Seems like your numbers are about 100 hp
- or maybe one rotor – too low.

BBQ Run / 20B numbers
Doug, at 15 gph at 6000
rpm, Mark would be making approx 165 HP, perhaps a bit more, using a very
conservative BSFC of 0.55. If you assume a bit better BSFC of 0.49
it would be around 183 HP.

Great
story...thanks for posting it! At 6,000 rpm and 15 gph, how many HP
do you think you're developing?
Also,
have you by chance flown side by side with another Lycoming powered ES for
comparison purposes? If so what did you learn?
We're
going to have a couple of "burger burns" at our airport ((2OK2)
just east of Tinker AFB) this Spring / Summer, so maybe you'll feel like going
on a short cross country up this way and show our little EAA chapter
what a three rotor looks and sounds like?!

the hanger for Spring FWF and canopy work!
