There is no RPM drop during an in-flight mag check with a constant speed propeller.



The rpm drop during a pre-flight mag check is due to the reduction of crank angle geometry efficiency due to the retarded thetaPP and the resultant loss of power.

Yr Right, can you define ThetaPP for us? Or, are you still not answering questions?
