How to calculate Magnus force FM.
K=o(1)
Once you know the force for the given rpm, size and air velocity, you can calculate it for every similar bodies.
Friction between cilinder and air flow is very few because cilinder surface is smooth, a good tip to increase FM is to use a rough surface or radial shutters.
A good air circulation is necessary but it can induce high turbolence.
