Default Lubrication for moving parts (shafts/bushings) on helicopter



Any recommendations for some lubricant to put on the moving parts
(main shaft shaft and collars, tail rotor slide/shaft, etc...)?? I
have seen others lubricating these between flights on a regular basis,
but haven't recognized the lubricants being used.

What is best lubrication to use? Any other advice here?

Thanks,
Tim

Most people at our field use Tri-Flow Superior Lubricant. Some hardware
stores carry it (Home Depot and Lowes don't seem to carry it though), but
you'll probably find it easier at a bicycle shop.

As your flying improves you'll cover it with fuel oil anyway! Keeping the
thing clean will occupy more time than lubing it.
