Thrust is a force, and is measured in newtons [N]. Typical notation is to measure it in g because it is more intuitive
Ex: A thrust of 100g can lift an object that weighs 100g, assuming that the thrust force is pointing upwards
Higher Prop Diameter, Lower Pitch = Higher Thrust, Lower Top Speed
Lower Prop Diameter, Higher Pitch = Lower Thrust, Higher Top Speed
Rule of Thumb: Thrust (g) needs to be approximately 1/3 of the overall plane’s weight for successful takeoff. A thrust-weight ratio of 1:1 can lift an object without the lift force generated by airfoils
