My eyes lit up reading your post because the way you described the application of the Kilmat is so much in line with my thinking of preventative maintenance. Thank you bud! I have to admit, after I finished reading your post, I immediately searched up Kilmat on Google and have decided to get myself some. It’s just so convenient and also easier, compared to a more semi “permanent” solution such as machined or fabricated gearboxes. I would also admit that my skill-level isn’t so high compared to the few more experienced RC-ers around here. That is why I’m not so confident around the fabrication of custom components such as gearbox covers and what not. Thank you Maccrage for the input, appreciate it greatly man!
