The EMB climbs at 100% of MAX which is somewhere around 1300 RPM and cruises at 85% (around 1100 RPM). We have a PAX comfort climb which calls for 90% (1175 RPM) above 10K but I'm not 100% about the numbers, like I’ve said it's been over a year since I've flown it. Our profile also calls for 170 kias in the climb until upper teens, but she’ll go or climb faster if needed.

Hey guys, what’s the diameter of your props. The EMB props are 10.5 ft in diameter and sit 18” off the ground. Just curious, the Q props looks huge and the Saab's look small (may not be but they do).
