Hi all,

I just built a spectra and noticed there is an access hole to rear tail box to add grease. Is there a certain type recommended and how often should I put more in?

Thanks

Mike

The recommended grease is the MA #4707 and #4709 Synthetic hydrogen grease. Grease the gears when they are installed and periodically after that using the acess "hole". I generally grease every 30 or so flights. Don't fill the box, just add a bit and any excess will come out of the outer bearing during flight.

Later,
