It falls very freely to the heavy side. The props are real bad without the tape. Put one on the vice and one side drops like a brick !

Just used normal clear tape to get them so they settle in the middle Saves buying a fancy balancer. To be fair the motors are not very well balanced as you can feel the vibrations in the arms with the props off. Hence me wanting better motors for the 450. Currently looking at SunnySky - or the 'T' motors.

Good idea. Think I'll get my work bench level and give it a go
