An integrated wireless data system and method for avionic performance indication for measuring, monitoring and displaying in-use, real-world engine-out characteristics on a propeller driven aircraft for the purposes of health monitoring, performance optimization, and regulatory compliance is provided. Engine-out characteristics may be measured either at the propeller extension hub mounted between the engine and propeller, on the crankshaft flange, or on the propeller itself, and include, but are not limited to, the engine output torque, thrust, vibration, bending loads and temperature. Data may be transmitted wirelessly to a base unit located inside the cockpit and user selected parameters are updated on a display in real-time. The system may also store all collected data, for later download and analysis. The system may also have a software interface that can be used to download, view and analyze all recorded data, as well as to configure the system settings and alerts.
