Instructions say not to modify the prop in any way. But they are not<BR>
balanced. Do most people just use as is or balance? If you balance, how do<BR>
you do it?<BR>

Jerry try painting some clear dope to the light side. Remember that the carrier in the dope will evaporate so over balance and let it come in. It will take some time to get it right.<BR>
<BR>
Or do what most of us do: take 320 wetor dry paper and wet sand the heavy side. While you are at it, also remove the sharp trailing edge and smoothen the leading edge. Finish the job with 600 wet<BR>
