Default RE: Balancing prop.

I would not drill holes in the prop. One reason is that the prop already flexes under load, and drilling holes will likely reduce the strength in that blade causing further, unbalanced flex. I imagine the holes would also affect the aerodynamics of the prop, but I'm not exactly sure how.
