I Built THIS to Find the Best Motor & Prop for My Organic Wing (+15% Efficiency!)

But even with an optimized airframe, one critical question remained unanswered: Which motor and propeller combination is actually the most efficient in the real world? So in this video, we build a fully custom thrust bench from scratch to measure real propulsion performance using load cells, RPM sensor, current, voltage, and automated data acquisition. Using a combination of aerodynamic theory, motor-propeller matching, and thousands of real measurements, we compare multiple motors and propellers to find the setup that delivers the best efficiency for endurance flight. The results were… not what I expected! We test: 5 different brushless motors 8 different propellers APC, Aeronaut CAM, and low-cost options Hundreds of automated thrust bench runs And by the end, we identify a propulsion upgrade that could increase the endurance of the NX-2 flying wing by roughly 15%. In the next videos, we’ll validate everything with real flight data and push the endurance of this aircraft even further.
