Propeller Balance Master
"Montblack" wrote what's best - shaving or painting? How far out from the hub for each method? ...assuming a wooden prop. Just curious. The further out, the less weight needs to be added. I have read that it is far better to not disturb the seal of the prop by shaving, if at all possible. It may not be possible to change a badly off prop with paint alone. Others have opinions reflecting far more experience than me. The largest prop I have ever balanced is 22 inches, but it does make a huge difference. -- Jim in NC -- Jim in NC
