See the video below. I'm not an editing guru so please forgive the video length and quality.
I was getting some severe vibration and noise during taxi so I mounted a GoPro under the wing to see what was going on. I was surprised to see how much the mains were vibrating. I had balanced the nose wheel but not the mains.
I balanced the mains and although it felt much better inside the plane, they still moved around alot. The pants are mounted securely.
I was told that a possible fix for this is to install about 2 pounds of lead into the nose of the wheelpants to balance them. I'd like to hear the consensus on that.
Look how much the exhaust pipes are moving during cruise flight. Normal?
There are a few takeoffs and landings in the video also.
