3 blades are always smoother. Unless the axis of the engine is exactly coax
ial withe line of flight, the assymetric loads as the blades pass through h
orizontal cannot be balanced. Nothing to do with mass, it's the different A
oA of the two blades.=0AGraham=0A=0A=0A=0A________________________________

<alancarteresq@onetel.net>=0A=0AHi All. =0AJust keep things simple, but wit
h regards- to propellers.=0AOne blade rotating is out of balance, add ano
ther blade then more balanced, then add another blade even- more balanced
so end up with four blades even better.=0AWell that's the way i see it, bu
t is that really the case, which can you balance the best a two bladed prop
or a three bladed prop for the same out of balance error.=0ADoes a two bla
ded prop have certain advantages, besides being broader and- stronger, I
don,t want to know about Blade Interference, just any other points. Anybody
!! You are not being tested.=0A=0AGraham, good point on carbs, maybe this
one in your expertise.=0A=0AAlan=0A=0A=0A=0A=0ARead this topic online here:
