I'd like to develop curves for my engine/plane performance similar to what is published for my prior Piper/Cessna aircraft. Logging data is really easy with the G3X system installed. Has anyone built a flight plan around that I can review?
I'm in a RV-14 with a IO-390. It's really hot down here in Louisiana lately so the density altitudes are high.
I suppose the easiest thing to do is climb up to an altitude, fly 5-10 min at various power settings, down 500, repeat. Then some data analysis. Make some curves! There probably is a nice graphic package to do that but graph paper may be quicker.
