Hey man, losing weight takes time, but very rewarding. The best way to think of it is as a lifestyle change, not just a diet. You got to where you are because of your lifestyle, so that needs to be what changes. Otherwise it will just come back. I wish you the best with it, it can be difficult, but nothing tastes as good as skinny feels. That saying keeps me going, and it is very true. Thanks for the very informative video.

I was sure you were going to take too much and have to sand the other side. 😁 And I just ordered the balancer. Thanks for the insight and demo.

No I was not going to sand off that great yellow paint.

I use a combination of reinforced tape , or scrape along the trailing edge of the pro with a scalpel, or a smear of CA glue applied to the back if the prop - sometimes it can be a combination of these to get the balance right - depends how much it is out of balance...

All good methods , I just want people to understand the importance of it. I would hate for someone to make same mistake I made with my night brave.

Thanks for this tutorial!! How about a video about the tools in the toolbox you take to the flying field for incidental situations that can be quickly fixed and keep you flying?

You've forgotten to balance the prop hub afterwards. That's the most important thing! Please do not sand painted props. Ruins the look☝ Spray them with clear varnish on the back instead and wait until it dried. Never sand.

Cool tips thank you.

If you watch this guy in the video at 8:30, he even gets the prop to stay in the vertical position. He even put CA glue and kicker on the hub: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hb6lgdGKtrWWo2g.html

@FatGuyFliesRC 3 жыл бұрын

Great little tip for glue on the hub. I always just sand a prop end but so did he. Bottom line it balances and helps prevent damage to motor, mount and the over all performance.
