Integrated thrust measurement and aerodynamic testing for small to mid-size propellers. The Prop Testing Station with Wind Tunnel combines a precision-engineered thrust measurement platform with a compact, reconfigurable wind environment, providing aerospace engineers and propulsion researchers a robust solution for evaluating small and medium-sized propeller systems. Designed around the Series 1585 Propeller Test Stand, the system quantifies thrust, torque, RPM, and electrical power, offering a complete dataset to assess propulsion efficiency under realistic flow conditions. With support for brushless electric motors and a sampling rate up to 80 Hz, it enables high-resolution characterization of propulsion behavior in controlled lab environments.Coupled with a 2 x 2 Windshaper module, the system generates a tunable airflow using 36 independently regulated fans to replicate a range of flight conditions. The wind wall’s 50 x 50 cm footprint is optimized for rotors up to 16 inches in diameter, delivering maximum flow speeds of 30 m/s with convergent modules. Whether validating motor-propeller configurations for multirotors or investigating novel airfoil geometries, this integrated setup empowers developers of uncrewed aerial systems to shorten iteration cycles and enhance aerodynamic fidelity through rigorous repeatable testing.

The Prop Testing Station with Wind Tunnel combines a Series 1585 Propeller Test Stand with a 2x2 Windshaper module to provide integrated thrust measurement and controlled aerodynamic testing for small to mid-size propellers in a laboratory setting. The test stand measures thrust, torque, RPM, and electrical power at up to 80 Hz, while 36 independently controlled fans generate tunable airflow up to 30 m/s for rotors up to 16 inches in diameter.

This integrated platform enables UAV and propulsion engineers to characterize motor-propeller combinations, validate aerodynamic efficiency, and investigate novel rotor geometries under repeatable, realistic flight conditions. It is well suited to accelerating iteration cycles for multirotor and fixed-wing UAS development programs where both thrust performance and in-flow aerodynamic behavior need to be measured simultaneously.
