Thanks for the lead Kevin but I am looking for a good deal on one that sees
no use from its current owner and don't want to contribute a dime to the
middle man.

If someone has one and its not any use to you any longer and is complete and
in good operating condition I will pay $500. Until then I'll have to do it
the way it has been done for the last 60 years.

Thanks,
Jim

Apologies to all for offering an on-topic post (heh heh).

I didn't see anybody answer Jim's question. One outfit that is advertizing
that
they have a DSS
Micro-Balancer for sale is Vortech, the outfit that sells those
ain't-gonna-fly
"helicopter" plans in
the back of Popular Mechanics. At this page they offer several Minis, and
in the
ad for one they
suggest that they will sell the balancer separately.

You can also try emailing Dennis Fetters and Rick Stitt, and seeing where
they
got the balancers.
That might be a crapshoot. But it's obviously an industrial device that
was
adapted to aviation... it
has to be available somewhere.


cheers
