SNIP Subject: Re: Nose wheel pant vertical oscillation
Thanks to you and others who replied.? Will try some things and report.? Do not
archive...... Out of round is obvious if you place a stick or pen close to
the tire and observe the separation as the tire slowly rotates.
.....
Balance using adhesive backed weights you can get from
places like motorcycle shops SNIP
I have often wondered if the balancing beads that are used in motorcycles, trucks, and RVs (the motorhomes, not the planes) would provide any benefit for balance issues seen in our planes? I'd experiment with it on my plane... if I had an issue that needed it!
If anyone out there has REAL experience with these beads, please report back.
Not to start a war, but please spare us the "I heard...." or "IMHO, the beads are...." comments. Those only muddy the waters.
Has anyone actually used this product and did it help?
