Prop balancing

[Davidv]

Does anyone have a good recommendation for prop balancing in the central or south Florida area?  I was going to have it done where I got it overhauled but first wanted to see if anyone has had any good experience with other experts out there...

Thanks.

Had mine done at Palm Beach Propeller at Lantana. Did excellent work and I think it cost all of $300.00.

See if MT’s office does dynamic balancing for competitive brands...

A great opportunity to discuss their wares, while doing a simple (For them) job...

Maybe a talk them into a timeshare type of model. "Sure, I'll sit through your hour long presentation on the superiority of MT props while you balance mine for free".

Upsides for both parties, I believe...

No one knows how to do it here. So I do my own. I've fixed several bad balance jobs in the past few years. I also have my own scales, for the same reason. People just can't seem to weigh an airplane correctly.
