[QUOTE="KMixson, post: 420595, member: 432"] Any damage to the prop will cause a reduction in performance. How much depends on how damaged the prop is. In your case that would be minor damage to me. Myself, I would change it but I am a stickler for having things right. I know with damage on one blade the other blade or blades are working harder. Weight taken out of that blade also causes it to be out of balance causing the shaft seal to wear faster and the gearing in the foot to have more wear. [/QUOTE]
