    Default warp drive prop balancing

    I searched the site for balancing props but only found dynamic balancing. I have new warp drive prop and I am wondering...does it need to be balanced somehow? I know the dynamic balancing kind fine tunes it but I don't have a dynamic balancer or $1500 to buy one. Is there another way to balance it to get as close as I can until I can get it dynamic balanced?

    Get the pitch the same on all blades and get th tracking within spec - then try it. The factory does balance the blades and they should be fine. If blades were repaired - then there is a reason for balancing.
