For this test, a controller defined in a Python script pitches the blades from 0 to 90 degrees, starting at 15 seconds and finishing at 30 seconds The model used for this test is the default RNA template.

2 Analytical solution

When the blades are pitched 90 degrees, the RPM is expected to go down to 0. The power is thus expected to be 0 as well. With the blades pitched to feather, the aeerodynamic thrust is expected to be close to 0.
