Just had 3 great flights today. Practiced flying slow pirouettes while flying some circles. Difficult, but fun if you can keep up with it.

The last flight the flybar link seperated from the swashplate. This has happend before, so I know what it sounds like when it happens. Set her down, but couldn't get to the idle up switch quick enough and now it needs a blade grip too, and possible new swashplate for the ball link. The question here is:

Has the plastic worn down to a point where its time to replace moving parts? Did the light machine oil cause the wear? Would white lithium grease prolong the parts? What are people using for lubrication on plastic? When do you replace the ball link connectors?

Hmmm???
