The only way to get perfect results is for the wind to be calm. A 10
MPH breeze give you false readings, At least it does on the Acers
unit.. YMMV...


Are you saying that a 10 MPH breeze causes a perfectly balanced prop to vibrate
noticeably?

Nope... What happens is the wind gusts during the actual balancing
operation will affect the unit from stabilizing and giving you a good
location and amount of weight to add...


How long does it normally take, running at full RPM, to get a stable reading on
one of these balancer systems?
