Squeeling = Bearings??
I'm in uncharted teritory. I've flown dozens of flights with success and I couldn't be happier.
I replaced all bearings from the motor to the tail a while ago and life has been great. Lately I hear an intermittent high-pitch "squeel" the makes me think it's bearings. It definetly doesn't sound nice. However, my Vbar is performing flawlessly and I assume if bearings were THAT bad that vibes would have grounded it long ago. Any thoughts aside from pulling bearings one-by-one?! Oh BTW- Does anyone use this http://homepage.ntlworld.com/kevin.maxfield/greaser.htm vs just buying new bearings?

I have a greaser, but it will only work well if you have bearings with wear on them but no hard crashes. It won't magically make a bearing with dented balls smooth again.
