Default Propeller Thrust Calculator ?

Can anyone link me to a good Propeller Thrust Calculator ?
Is there any that have Xoar props listed?

One of the best is the old Grish Brothers prop company chart....
Pe Reivers on this forum has a good one...
Both are VERY close to actual measured thrust with a scale on the tail wheel....

You can substitute the NX prop value for the Xoar props.

High flight magazine archives ...Vol VI #2 page 6...
It's VERY close....
