This was a test I had rigged up to see which was more powerful, a pusher prop or a puller?

25.2k kikasshesThe pusher has slightly less drag (and it could be reduced even more by using nose cone), but the tractor (pulling propeller) is probably a little bit more efficient. (Hence it taking the lead at first, but then falling behind due to the higher drag)9.3 years ago
