Final Approach
When building automotive engines, the rotating assembly is balanced (internally balanced with crank counterweights, sometimes externally with weights on the harmonic balancer and flex plate too).
So what happens when you hang a prop on the front of an airplane engine? Does it need to be clocked to match existing internal balancing? Or does it not matter as long as each blade is fully balanced with the other blade(s)?
