Devil Aerodynamic Efficiency: Tractor Propeller verses Pusher Propeller
When considering a compounded helicopter, which consists of; a rotor, a propeller and no wing, I believe that the Tractor configuration



SNCASO Farfadet


is more efficient than the Pusher configuration




Sikorsky X2


This is the argument.


Opposition requested.
