Try this:

and
http://www.top-flite.com/parts/topq5700pl.html
Then practice using your search engines some. Pretty easy to find.
Glad to help though.

RE: prop balancer
bigyellowbird... I tape and spray paint the tips and just add more
paint to the light side... Sometimes it takes me a few tries to get
it balanced... But I'm getting better at it now:-)
Plus you'll see the tip better when the engine is running....
