Hello List,

I have the 3-Blade GSC Wood Prop coupled to a C-Box (3.47:1) and 582. GSC
states that static RPM should be about 6200...the previous owner had static
RPM way up at about 6500. I'm awfully tired of fine-tuning this thing -
whats the best static RPM in your opinions? BTW, right now I'm lucky to push
6200 in climb-out.

Thanks!

Sound like you have it about right, but be prepared to change it as the
weather changes. Just remember that with higher static rpm your takeoff
will be awesome, but your cruise speed and fuel consumption will suffer.
It's all a trade off.

I have a 582 with a GSC prop My static is 6250 and I don't exceed 6400 on climb out. I figure the rpm will increase with warmer weather.
