There is really nothing remarkable to say except that the blades are performing well,they are still
in perfect shape with no signs of delaminating,seperation,bubbles forming,spider cracks or any thing
unusual with the construction.
After getting used to the lack of blade vibration I have started noticing other small
vibrations from other components and have been working on them, tires being out of balance,
prop blades are a couple of items being attended too. I also have ordered a new prerotator
housing and cable from Calumetair,the old prerotator was to long and had a very tight radius
because of the length,I am hoping that the vibration on prerotation will go away and that I will
be able to prerotate to a higher RRPM with the cable being straighter,I will report on that after
installation and use.
Anyway I can recommend the Gryro-Tec Carbon fiber blades and teeter tower as being probably one of the best
buys on the market today and the price makes them an exceptional buy.
