Overview
DynaVibe Classic “The Affordable Dynamic Prop Balancer”
The DynaVibe Classic is an economical, state-of-the-art dynamic propeller balancer designed specifically for the aircraft industry. The DynaVibe Classic displays the magnitude and phase of propeller vibration allowing precise weight adjustments for balanced and smooth engine operation. Attention: DynaVibe Products may not be cancelled or returned. Economical – including: Dynamic Balancer Accelerometer with 30 ft cable Optical Pickup and Reflective Tape Carrying Case No hidden costs or additional items to buy! Accurate – Reports RPM, Vibration Magnitude, Vibration Phase Angle
Results – Reduce vibration levels to reduce wear on engine components and instruments. Enjoy a smooth flight! Why balance?
A properly balanced engine installation offers a number of advantages over unbalanced equipment. The most significant advantage is in the longevity of components associated with the power plant. In many cases high vibration levels have lead to premature failure of critical engine components. Engine accessories, engine mounts, firewalls, and instruments are also susceptible to vibration damage and premature failure.
Standard VS Rotorcraft Version:
The rotorcraft version is the same as the aircraft version with additional features:
The rotorcraft version includes an extra accelerometer to reduce accelerometer position movements between flights.
The rotorcraft version includes push-to-talk switch activation of the averaging button, to allow your hands to remain on the controls.
Note: The rotorcraft version also works on propellers
NIST Option
NIST is the National Institute of Standards and Technology: an agency in the Technology Administration that makes measurements and sets standards as needed. The NIST traceable option is available for those that are working on certified aircraft.
Important Info
The helicopter version will also work for fixed-wing aircraft.
There are no physical differences between NIST and non-NIST. The only difference is that the NIST unit comes with a certificate of calibration showing that it has been compared to a NIST standard device.
One year full warranty
NIST calibration is required annually for certified aircraft/rotorcraft.

Balance Masters® are Patented, Designed, Manufactured and Distributed in the U.S.A. and are easy-to-install devices for propellers and Rotax engines. These devices cut the vibration factor on ultralight aircrafts by as much as 50 percent when both balancers are installed.
Balance Masters® are weighted with a high density liquid mass (Quick Silver). The physical principles of centrifugal and gyroscopic forces explain the action of the Balance Masters®. With the Balance Masters installed, the weighted liquid mass (Quick Silver) in the apparatus shifts during spinning, and adjusts to compensate for imbalances due to such factors as changes in flying conditions or warpage in the propeller, from nicks and rocks during takeoffs and landings. The Propeller Balance Masters® mounts on the propeller shaft or gear box in conjunction with the propeller. It is less than 7 inches in diameter. The Engine Balance Master is made to fit most Rotax engines and bolts under the Starter Pulley on the Fly Wheel side of the engine. It is less than 5 inches in diameter. Each device weighs about 4 oz. Installation will take about 25-30 minutes using ordinary hand tools for each device. Balance Master is designed to fit most propeller bolt patterns and Rotax engines from 277FA through 582. We will need to know the manufacturer of your propeller and engine model to determine the right configuration. On engines with reduction gear box can be used a second balancer on the crankshaft, installed as shown in the diagram. The installation of the two balancers, the propeller and crankshaft, gives the highest level of vibration reduction. 15-05828: Off-Set Prop Balancer |
| Q & A | Q: Can the DynaVibe be used on geared prop installations? Yes. It actually works very well on geared assemblies since the geared drive puts the engine vibration frequency at a different frequency than the prop vibration frequency. This makes it easier to isolate just the prop vibration. |
