Default Proboat Fastech nitro

heys guys,i have a brand new Fastech nitro that has never been run,bought it last year and its been sitting ever since.the weather is cooperating now so im looking to running it this weekend.ive checked the electronics and theyre fine.my question is about the flexshaft.should i re-grease before running it or will it be fine? i dont have any of the grease that is used,but i do have white lithium grease spray,is that ok to use or should i use something else.any recommendations are well appreciated.thx in advance.

I have one of those also, I think it's a blast, tons of fun. Handles really well.
After you get it going and break it in a bit you might want consider switching to a metal prop. I broke a few of the plastic props that came with it. The Grimracer prop works really well with it.
