 |
|
Getting ready to install my InAir LRI and need to keep it 24 inches outside the prop arc. It's 4 feet out on the wing to an ideal inspection port, but need to know the largest prop arc out there. Thanks.

Measure the height to the center of your spinner (or center of the
prop attach flange on the engine) with engine installed from the
ground and subtract 9 inches. This will give you the the radius of
the maximum prop arc based on typical aircraft design practice:
provide minimum of 9" ground clearance for a prop arc.

Well, it's an 80" prop, so 40" is the arc....so 64" as the minimum.

Since I'm still just doing wings and Fuselage, I don't have an engine, hence the question. But thanks, I've got the info I need. It's about 2 feet from the spinner to the wing root, so another 40 inches brings it very close to the bay I want to use. I'll probably play it safe and move it out one more bay.
