After several years building, and flying blades , I weight them as you did. Then I cut tape or covering material to exact diference weight to add on the 2 lightest ones. Using the heavier one, as reference, on the balancer, I move the additional tape to find the balance... So, cg is the correct and both finish with the same weigth. Then the second ligth one , and that works fine.
Once you are at that stage yes they should work fine. 👍 If a little out of balance try switching position of the blades on the delta plate , So blade 1, 2, 3 becomes 1,3,2 or set the head up in a vice so all three blades are on the delta plate vertically and add tape to the lightest blade. It is a juggling act to get them perfect. But so long as the imbalance is not too far out it will work fine.
Good morning friend, please help me with some ideas! I would like to make an RC gyrocopter and I don't know how to calculate the fuselage and the blade rotor.
I wish their was a simple answer but their not, but for now watch this video as I think peter explains the problems better than I could also read his description for more info. ruclips.net/video/pKfAqf1pSfw/видео.htmlsi=x_rQULZTcgSSSDon
Well, mine came with built blades. I'm a first-timer noobie, aside from a cheap 2 channel foam plane. I figured out how to iron the warpage out. I did not think to balance. Thank you for your video. I think I might use the same method for the ancient ceiling fans we have.

thank yiou
No problem 👍
could one use RC helicopter blades angled down on the rotor head?
No, Rc Gyrocopters have a flat bottom aerofoil a bit like a clark Y . But the leading edge needs to be sharp not rounded . Look here 1:00
@@RcAircraft I see. thank you.

Yes it is very important to balance your blades.
Excellent video,but get rid of the background music,could not make out what you were saying.
Thanks Dan
Point taken i did not think it was that bad. I will see if i can edit the audio or re do the audio.
Thanks for your comment.
@@RcAircraft Thanks Steve, any possible way you could make a video on how you figured mast position on the Lidl. Just getting into gyros
@@TheDuncandan I have started a new build of the Lidl Glider Autogyro so the detail of measurements and weight CoG will be on this one. Cheers.
@@RcAircraft Thanks looking forward to it.
