Brushless oiling.

[Bryson]

Well I have a mamba comp package in my rc18 and the guy at the hobby shop said that they need to be oiled. What does he mean by this. I have been runing the crap out of my mini latley and I know it must be geting around time for some maintnence. Any clues on oiling?

You should oil the front and rear bearing. I do this after each race or after each bash session. Get some RC Motor bearing Oil and put just 1 drop on each end of the shaft close to the bearing. You dont want to over do it. Run the motor for a second or two.

Just since the topic has been brought up.... is there any other maintanence that needs to be done to a brushless motor? Thanks
