Beautiful CO
Can someone give me advise on how to balance my Warp Drive prop? I think I am getting too much vibrations.

Thanks

Udi, check the pich of all blades first by placing an approx 3' straight edge from the back of the blade to the floor and make a chalk mark. Do this with each blade in the same position without moving the machine.

I have a prop balancing gadget that I use for multi blade props so I will take a pic and post it hopefully tomorrow. The old pic is a millin words when you a slow typist like me!!!! Aussie Paul.
 
Thanks, Paul. My prop's blades are pitched about 11.5 dgrees. I checked with a Smart Tool. There is a difference of about 0.2 degrees between them, can that be meaningful?
