This is my video tutorial about how to design, built and test a propeller with no money!



in the video, i am the guy with black t-shirt.

Application:

I also made an application for windows and Mac that helps you to find an aproximate static thrust, angles, diameter, rpm and chord for begin iterations. you can specify the diameter and press the Lock button and play with the other variables. if you want more trust and the textbox get highlighted, try to increase the diameter and decrease rpm. the software will compute the angles chord and everything for you.

I recommend to download Propcalc and test the outputs of my app there in a "BLade element Theory software". but of course that kind of software are just to analize performance of the predesigned thing.

Its a Pre Pre-Alpha Version so expect some bugs and of course if you can contribute with something, i will appreciate that.
