    You Should Know

    To INCREASE R.P.M. DECREASE propeller pitch.

    To DECREASE R.P.M. INCREASEpropeller pitch.

    Generally speaking the following rule of thumb can be applied to propellers.

    Reducing the pitch of your propeller by two inches will ussually produce a 400 R.P.M. increase in your engine speed.

    You could say the R.P.M. will increase or decrease by 200 R.P.M. for every inch of pitch by which the prop is either increased or decreased but since most propeller manufacturers offer props which differ in pitch by two inches at a time we use the 400 R.P.M. analogy.
