Hard to tell but the prop looks loose on the balancer is it a snug fit that might account for the wobble ?.Does the hole seem centred in the prop ive seen some that werent and yes thet is a big problem.

The hub hole doesn't look like its in the centre to me.

For such an expensive set of props you need to go back to propshop.<br type="_moz" />

Looks like hole is not centered on the hub. You might be able to balance the prop but it may affect the way it runs. I would contact Propshop with the video and ask for replacement.

You cant run the props if there not balanced propperly or you will damage something,any wobble will first cause poor handling but the worst thing is the damage it will cause to your driveline and hardware and worst case scenario your engine itself,dont use an unbalanced prop.It does seem like they have a problem with these props if theyre all coming like that,back to the drawing board me thinks.
If i were you i wouldnt get my props direct from them as they never come propperly balanced and only butterknife sharp they make good props but they do require a lot of work in my opinion,go to dasboata and get them from him as he will work on them so they are perfectly balanced and his props are the best in my opinion.

Something is amiss when you can hear in the video of one blade hitting the balancer.

Is it actually balanced?? The videos dont show it stopping? you can balance a prop that don't look right to te eye. It will most probably cavatate like crazy tho. Your balancing your rotating mass at the end of th day. Lets say Your rotating mass your trying to balance is a 2p coin with the hole drilled offcentre... When its balanced it will be round with the hole the centre......


The point is its doesn't look right at all... If its been balanced then its probably had a large about of material taken from the blades to counter act the way it's been formed.

It's a lot drill the hole in the centre than balance the whole lot!!!!

thanks your suggestion.I told Chris (Dasboata) that is not used.but he said not a problem. I did not accept it and I returned the props.on top of it,unjustly sent the missing money ($ 60 did not)When I asked the question ,he not responded!!!I wish had not been acquainted with them.I hope,other people does not fall this error.
