Disclaimer: I do NOT work for corrosion X or its distributor in Singapore. I am posting this based on personal usage.
Howdy NITRO bird lovers, wondering if any brudders here does After Operation Service (AOS) for their nitro engines.
Background: I bought an align b6t 2 in 1 regulator with ignitor from LHS. Was subsequently advised to proceed with caution as the switch may be faulty which can cause a brownout of rx. Brown out may lead to the elusive chicken dance (Not a good thing at all). A good Bro of mine actually lost his bird due to a malfunction of this unit. Anyways I did a search in helifreak and found some mods that I could perform myself. However being the lazy bumster and busy daddy, I took the easy option which was to check connection and then spray the unit with a substance known as "Corrosion X". Also I wanted to somewhat slow the "aging" process of the bearings as well as the components in the engine. Corrosion X can purportedly "kill" rust & stop corrosion. According to some gun forums in US, this is the best product for lubrication & protection against corrosion. Taking into considering that the US Navy or Army uses it on their equipment for lubrication & anti-corrosion protection, it would be surely ok for our puny nitro engines. My only grouse is the smell which can be overbearing (its petroleum based btw). Anyway I have opened up the backplate and pumped in generous amounts. I will fire it up tonight and see what happens.
Just wondering, any bros here use this product to lubricate bearings or components of your birds? Apparently it managed to "waterproof" certain RC equipment as seen in youtube.
This lubricating stuff made me recall Richard Gere's visa ad: "if you free the birds, you get good luck". BUT "If you free MY bird, you get better luck"
