| Welcome Den !1st I reccommend you fill out the your profile as much as possible as that's the 1st place we look for info to help.
I fly both heads, and the Pro head, is a line fit and will stay contant in posistion as the plastic can have a bit of tolerence.
Both are great heads !
Far as the vib's go need to address the issues one at a time. The motor tuning issue can be found by searching under your carb model # and engine type, I fly the 230's and the 167 carb.Lot's of great documentation searching.
The vibs you mention are most likly poor tracking of both your paddles and your blades or maybe a fly bar issue or all. Here's hoe I do it.
Stuff you need for bench alignment: Pitch guage, Nice to have a caliper, or a good metric ruler, cheapo masons line level, and it's nice to have a spare or a pedulum protractor.
If you want to spend a bit, MA makes a nice paddel alignment gage and you have to make a cheap flybar lock or buy one.
Level the boom dead on the horizontal plane,Hench the spare level or protractor, may need to shim up the back of your strutts a tad to achieve.
Level your fly bar, stick the line level on it, and clamp it stationary in the level posistion with a fly bar lock . You can rig it with a wooden dowel in the vertical posistion, and some bands if your on a budget. " just as good "
Sight across the top's of the paddel horizon too see how out of wack they are, or if they are in the same horisontal plane as the boom.
You can also see if the fly bar is tweeked.
SInce all is locked down and level: Mark one of your grips as your master grip, white out, paint, scratch, anything.
If you match weight and balence your blades with tracking tape thats the grip I attach to. All flight tracking adjustments are done to that grip.
If you have a caliper or a metric ruler, start pulling links and comparing lengths to get them dead on, I betcha your off a bit.
If you have a broken blade, cut it off short, and you can attach you pitch guage, and get em all done at once.
