PRACTICAL THROTTLE CURVE EXAMPLE
The following is a step-by-step example of creating a throttle curve for a gas-powered airplane.
Use similar steps to set up any aircraft.
1. Start the engine.
2. Using a tachometer, nd the RPM range. Subtract the idle RPM from the full speed RPM to
get the RPM range.
3. Divide the RPM range in half. Add the half RPM value to the idle RPM for the half RPM speed.
4. Find the throttle value that delivers the half RPM speed.
5. Adjust the center point on the throttle curve to the half RPM value.
Every point along the curve can be adjusted similarly to nd the exact throttle value for each
point in the range. Ensure the curve transitions smoothly through the center point to deliver a
smooth response through the RPM range.
