I got an as new fan from a guy hear on this site. Last saterday on my first flight with it, about 2/3rds into it , it chucked a blade.

I could see no signs of this fan having a problum, and I am shure the guy that sold it too me had no idea there was a problum with it.

Are the Byron fans prone to loosing blades, or was this a fluke?

I have the old one that I replaced that is pretty chewed up but is ballenced and will fly the jet. I also have an almost new fan that has one very small chip on one blade ( I havent checked it for ballence yet). I also have a Gray fan but don't know much about it, it looks like it was for a smaller engine.

Is there any way to know if any of them will be likely to chuck a blade?

Thanks
Dave
