A while back, during a spell of stupidity, I landed my Coupe on a dirt strip. As it turned out, it was really a mud strip. The nose gear kept flinging mud into the prop. I ended up with one good nick in each blade of the prop. Good nick defined as approx. 1/2" wide, and 1/8" deep. A couple of other tiny ones in each blade. It also took most of the black paint off the end 10 inches of each blade. I went out the other with a file, and filed them out. At least rounded the edges so's no sharp nicks anymore. Then I repainted it. If I was to guess, I'd say I took the same amount off of each blade weight wise. The question is, did I do good, or did I do bad? How critical is the blade balance? Could I have taken enough off with a file to cause balance problems?
