Default Spinner strobing as a "Bird Strike Countermeasure"

At cruise RPM that effect would be completely lost. There's not a
bird or human alive that can discern stroboscopic effects of more
than a couple hundred cycles let alone over a 1000. Most of us can't
even discern 60 cps.


Birds have much better vision than human beings, and I don't believe
anyone has tested their ability to discern stroboscopic effects.


What using your parakeet as a wing man now in combat sim games?
