My experience is that weight unbalance on a propeller is rarely a problem
and that shaking is usually a pitch problem. Another thing that has not
been mentioned is the alignment of the rubber hook, allied to which is the
question of whether the motor is tracking well on the hook or whether it is
climbing to one side. (If it is of any comfort I think that most flyers can
recount stories of high times put up by oscillating aeroplanes which have
inadvertently lost a prop blade in a collision. ,smile.)
