Does anyone make a balancer for lateral balance ? I know the old trick of using the prop shaft and a pin in the vertical stabilizer but I still think there should be a better way. I too made a balancer by using dowels and eraser tips. Cheapo but it works just fine. I bought a GP prop balancer. I should have thought more clearly and made one the same way we did in the 30's. Four single edge razor blades in two V shapes on a pair of sticks. Round dowel or tubing through the prop hub. It's a lot simpler and uses scrap on hand.
