Low speed , it is quiet, higher speed , rattles, I balanced the wobble

Axial play shouldn't cause rattle. Even on high, the shaft/blade assy
shouldn't create enough lift to bob up and down.

Check for bent blade arms. If one is at a different height or angle,
it will cause problems at higher RPMs. Have you tried rebalancing it
lately? Self-adhesive lead weights have a habit of flying off when
you're not looking, or when being dusted. DAMHIKT.

"The socialist movement takes great pains to circulate frequently new labels for its ideally constructed state.
Each worn-out label is replaced by another which raises hopes of an ultimate solution of the insoluble basic
problem of Socialism, until it becomes obvious that nothing has been changed but the name.
The most recent slogan is "State Capitalism."[Fascism] It is not commonly realized that this covers nothing more
than what used to be called Planned Economy and State Socialism, and that State Capitalism, Planned Economy,
and State Socialism diverge only in non-essentials from the "classic" ideal of egalitarian Socialism. - Ludwig von Mises (1922)
