Ed Martin's legacy is smooth.  Mine has had a lot of annoying vibes as you describe but virtually all have been removed with lots of cowling interference fixes and plug change.  Many pilots forget the alternator can be a wicked source of vibration and it is almost in the same plane as the prop.

The problems I had originally were in that freq range and visible at the wingtip also.

Has anyone definitely flown a vibration-free IO-550 Lancair (or TSIO-550) with *any* propeller?  And by vibration-free, I mean it is free of low-frequency 10-20Hz stuff, not the normal noise of flying.  What I'm wondering is...  is it the 550, making such vibration with *any* propeller?
