Hi, anyone know of a Dynavibe rental or someone close to the Knoxville, TN area that can balance a warp drive on a KF7? Thank you, David

There was one going around. I may be interested in it after you!

should start a list, with enough interest maybe someone would be willing to part with one for a short time?

It was done a few years ago and was very popular. Do a search as I don't remember the name of the generous owner that allowed it to be sent around to the list.

About six months ago I contacted the person had been renting his out but he commented that he stopped because it became too much of a chore to keep track of it. Luckily I discovered that there was a fellow in my EAA Chapter who had one so I got my Whirlwind RG3 balanced. I located the fellow by searching the forum for Dynavibe.

Rodney, thank you and much thanks for all the comments, and this forum for the help. I have made arrangements through Viking Aircraft Engines to rent theirs. $130. for a 5 day use, the price includes shipping both ways. I'll report back next week after I get a chance to use it. Thanks again, David

Glad you found one to use. Suggest about 5 grams for your trial weight and put it on a spinner bolt.

If I can be of any help give me a call

Making a video of the whole process of prop balanceing would be really helpful to those of us that need to balance our props.

Gawilke. You live just north of me I think. Aren't you just south of Springfield??

When you get ready to balance your engine/prop send me a text. We'll see if we can get together. I get too many fake phone calls these days, but if you will text than I can call you back.

What engine do you have??

Korbike. I'd love to see some pictures of your engine. Did you put the 130HP Viking in your Kitfox????
