Is there a different procedure for balancing a 3 blade as opposed to a 2 blade? If one blade is heavier do you add to the others or would it be easier to just take some off the heavy blade?
Thanks

never try to add weight it might come off and do some damage sand along the thick part of the heavy blade. don't try to take to much off at one time go slow. you may have to do two of the blades to get it to ballance.

Thanks, the video helped. Will try the velcro thing later today, will let everyone know how it worked.

Hmmm, no way will you ever catch me trying to glue goobers of velcro on any prop and anywhere on that prop. Whatwind gave the best advice, never add anything 'anywhere' on a prop other than perhaps some paint.

This is even more important with typical glow engines that are operated typically at much higher RPMs than the gas engines and typical prop indicated in the vidio by so called experts. Yes that is just my opinion.
