Re: [TCML] Spark gap



Among other things, the propeller gap is better at quenching (shutting off the spark), especially at high power.

I am going to ask a simple question but please give a simple answer. I am
not a EE just a builder. I was asking about a rotor gap the other day and it
was suggested I try a propeller gap for my 200ma coil. Well I have a motor
from a 8" hard drive now and am going to build a mount as soon as it is warm
enough to get to my shed. My question is why is a propeller at 3600 RPM
better than a RQ copper tube gap?  60 cycle RQ  vs a 3600RPM it's the same
break rate I think.
