lemwehner@sbcglobal.net>=0A=0AWe're finally installing our GSC 68-inch wood
en 3-bladed prop on a KF -IV-912. The instructions from GSC said the prop b
lades are balanced at the factory and are a matched and numbered set and th
e CG of the blades match. They say not to alter the blades in any way.-
=0A=0AHowever when we put the blades on the static prop balancer (the wire
stand one from Skystar), one blade is heavy. Weighing the blades reveals th
at one is indeed about 1 ounce heavier than the others.- Since they are a
numbered matched set, I question what to do next. =0A=0ADo we try to add w
eight to the other two blades (varnish or something) to get them to static
balance. But that would change the CG of the blades and "alter" them. What
should we do?=0A=0AClem=0ALawton OK=0A=0A=0A=0A=0ARead this topic online he
