Winter is coming. Again, through the summer the majority of my issues that caused flight failures were servo related.

Now is a great time to check for bad pots, do a visulal on the gears, make sure they are attached.

Not too many things worse than a bad pot going hard over and nothing to do about it.

Bearings need cleaning, lube and checked for any rough spots which could cause RF.

We push these machines hard. Lets check them out good so no one gets hurt.

For us noobs, what do you mean by pot? And is there a thread that discusses servo maintenance?
