Experimental investigation of a distributed propulsion system by Mehta, Ronak Chittesh

“…These trends were synonymous for both 10° and 20° deflections of propellers as well. In addition, with an increase in deflection angle for propellers within the same throttle speed, lift and stall angle were seen to increase as well with the most increase of stall angle occurring with deflections at 35% throttle speed. …”
