RSM Prop untouched in perfect balance.
« on: August 16, 2015, 04:55:03 PM »
I purchased a new 10 x 6 prop from RSM.  As soon as I unpacked it I put it on the Dubro prop balancer and found it to be in perfect balance.  I can put the prop in any position of the clock and it stays put.  I wonder if this is uncommon and I just got lucky or if RSM props come very well balanced.

best wood props available.

I have several, and I don't remember having to "fix" the balance.  I use the magnetic balancer --it has zero friction.

RSM's props are very nice and come balanced. At least, the only one I have run was perfect out of the pack. They are made to RSM specs, chords, pitch distributions, airfoil, etc., by XOAR in PRC. I would expect XOAR props to be similarly well made and balanced. I think there are other brands that are made by XOAR, but haven't any proof of that. Zingers are most definitely not made by XOAR!!!  VD~ Steve
