<But how does this relate to engine rpm?  Is your thrust/HP of 20#s based
on
1800 rpm?>

By reading your HP vs rpm curve, you can find the HP generated at a select
rpm and then multiply that by 20 to get the approximate static thrust
developed at that rpm.

I'm sorry, I misinterpreted your earlier message.  How do I get a HP vs
rpm curve?
