Chapter 5 - General Operation
• The closer the actual weight is to the specified amount and the closer
to the specified location, the better the initial and subsequent
solutions normally work.
• If the user performed the original solution exactly as specified, or if
the user input the actual propeller weight, the next solution will be
correct for the propeller.
CAUTION: Even with the Autocorrection feature off, the user must
record the actual weight and installation angles used.
