But isn't it also limited to the pitch of the propeller also. Kind of like gearing or per say a osprey plane that can change the pitch of the propeller? Or why new cars have 5-6-8 sp transmissions with smaller engines. or why i installed a over drive unit in my flathead.
Like maybe.... torque performance and gear ratios? when I'm at 4k rpms in 4th and switch to 5th which drops it 3k or below torque range? and I can't overpower the resistance. Just want to learn...
