maximum prop speed of 1900 on takeoff, our crank is going 2900.

I did some max power engine runs the other day and was disappointed to
only
get 4300 RPM static. That's only 2038 RPM at the prop. I know I should
get
some more RPM once I'm moving forward. Any ideas how much more I can hope
for? Assuming it's only a couple hundred more RPM that puts the engine at
4500 and the prop at 2133 which is 0.70 MACH at the prop tip. Max prop
thrust needs at between 0.88 and 0.92 MACH according to my web
surfing. My
question is if that is enough to safely accomplish first flight? Judging
by
the accelleration during my recent high speed taxi tests I think it will
be
fine and I can try to address the low max RPM over time. A little over
2100
prop RPM just seems really slow for takeoff. By the way, 4500 RPM gives
me
about 380 HP and well over 400 ft-lbs of torque.
