I don’t understand this. My understanding is that a half motor is made of
the same cross section as a full motor but of half the length. There is
then a rod that is of a length equal to half the hook distance and of a
weight equal to half the weight of a full motor, which goes between the half
motor and the rear hook. It seems to me therefore that the aeroplane total
mass and maximum torque should be the same whether a half or a full motor is
used.
I have not flown indoor for many years and techniques may have changed so
please excuse me if my question is fatuous.
