With the Scaling Wizard, I want to add my own information about wing span, weight, prop size and motor info?
• This example goes a step beyond the first. If the objective is to match, say, a 40% Carden 540 airplane and some information is known about the wing span, weight, prop size and motor, this example shows how this specific information can be used. The Scaling Wizard, will then autoscale data that required to get the physics right. • The wing span of the 40% Carden 540 is 118 inches, the weight is near 38 lbs, and the prop diameter is 30 inches. This information was found online, and when this information is compared with the autoscaled results in the first example, it should be clear that the autoscaling can come pretty close with requiring this specific input! But we will use this data nevertheless in this second example. • Go to the “Scaling – Size/Wgt” page and click on the buttons for span and weight, and enter the known values (see screen grab below). • Now go to the “Scaling – Propulsion” page, and in the propeller section click on the button to specify the diameter. Enter 29 inc
