The International Cessna 170 Association

Thread resurrection! I just did this yesterday. Dynamic balance with a full spectrum analysis. I had meaningful vibration and my flying buddies were all getting their props balanced with amazing results. My starting IPS was 1.5! 8O The first washer placement brought it down to 0.8 and what a differe...

Good ideas here, thanks everyone, I'll check these and report back.

Resurrecting an old thread... for those of you that have done the B&C conversion, did you have to get a different battery? I have a relatively new RG-25 and the B&C can barely turn over. The battery is fully charged. Have yet to measure the amperage during cranking - I suppose there could be...

Agreed. I just did this over the weekend. Perfect!

Great video! What camera mount are you using for the wingtip? Inspection cover mount?

I changed my plugs and reinstalled the ring sensor to the same position it was in before, now I do not get any reading higher than 50-60 C....

Heavy duty, red so i cant loose them, no tools req. http://www.aerotwin.com/products/cessna_seat_stop.html Those spindley little stops are ok and cheaper if your into that kind of thing... edit: Here is the Cessna PN that you are looking for 0713074-1 $25.26 list...
