prop efficiency

I think Hoerner gave props a maximum of around 87% mechanical efficiency for applying power to the air.
A NASCAR micro-finished driveline with 1:1 output Gear Vendors (Doug Nash Racing) transmission would be looking at around 94% overall efficiency,from flywheel to tire/road interface.
