I started a thread like this in the SR and Beam forums, thought it might be handy here too. I'll start it off by saying I finally broke down and bought a small tube of white lithium grease today to begin greasing bearings. I pulled the mains out and packed them several times the best I could with my fingers. Re-installed everything and spooled it up on the bench and I swear it sounds smoother. Also I found that one of my bullet blades was cracked..... never saw it until now, probably since I had it under my 'bench' light and had my bifocals on...lol. So I am wondering it this was my random bobbing I've been seeing lately while flying, almost like the gear was slid down but it wasn't. So I threw my KBDD's back on and we'll see what happens. Hope you enjoy the thread, it's a handy spot to post your day's events. Happy Flying!! :bacon
