22 Lego propellers are tested in a water-filled container. Which one provides the most thrust? Enjoy!

2 non-Lego propellers are also tested for comparison.

Test method: a Lego Buggy motor (5292c01) and 7V input voltage. A weight scale measures the thrust in grams. Multiple gear ratios (from 1:25 to 5:1) and both directions of rotation are tested for each propeller. The test bench is explained in detail starting at 1:46.

Note: the list of gear ratios shown from 3:22 to 3:50 are incorrectly presented as inverse ratios. Sorry about that.

The results can be read in my blog:
