Default RE: Reduce vibration

Winfried,

Your flex mount looks excellent! I have been experimenting with this kind of stuff for years, and I can tell you that the "vibe" I get about your mount is good.
If anything, maybe you could make it a little softer by putting the rubbers closer inboard, or using less of them. Without the shocks I'd say your rubber setup looks about right, but with the shocks you can make it a lot softer than you think without running into problems.
By the way, where did you get them shocks? Are they from Toni Clark?


Bill,

Could you, or someone else, please explain to me how a pefectly balanced prop could do the things you say it did? I fail to see how a balanced prop could change the balance of an engine...
