Virus a product similar to Permatex 80078 Anti-Seize Lubricant with Brush Top Bottle, 8 oz. which is only $7 in the USA would help when removing any thread parts. I've been in maintenance over 35 years and this is very common. Keep up the great work and maybe use Patreon for people to sponsor you. This will allow you to make money and make more videos.

Estos videos de mantenimiento creo q impresionan aun mas, el porque de cada pieza y cada cosa. Sobre todo lo demás, nada q no te hayamos dicho ya. Un abrazo!

Virus ! Tienes que vender esas lindas piezas de aluminio que haces + el Chief (o Super Chief) modificado ! Saludos desde la Côte d'Azur.

Very nice and simple concept. Makes sense, we did the threaded parts and orings also with some of our builds

[@michaelvadney5803]

Schweet! Very professionally built. Did you machine the casings? I like the reverse threading to help keep the housing tight. What caused the gouging in the tail fin boom? Thanks again Virus!

[@virus_virus]

sorry I dont understand your last question.

[@michaelvadney5803]

@@virus_virus Two questions, did you do the machining for the motor and gearbox housings? I noticed in the video the the kevlar boom had some gouging, heavy scratching, on it near the prop. Love all of your work by the way.

[@virus_virus]

thanks, i love composites too. About the fuselage is damaged because I´m trying aerial tricks and the tube(fuselage) get flex in the jump and knocking the propeller. The aluminium tube is custom design for my gearbox and motor and machinig in cnc, yes.

Do you prefer the geared setup to the direct drive?

[@virus_virus]

both setups, geared system more efficient, direct drive more hydrodinamic

[@jeremye6056]

@@virus_virus What motor are you using for your direct drive? And what size prop?

[@virus_virus]

the same motor and 56mm carbon fiber prop, next videos I will try new concept direct

[@foxeer]

Cool! What gearbox is this?

hello, from Ireland, i love your work, its inspiring, I've been collecting parts over the last year, im just wondering about the propeller options, what pitch did you find good, i have a sss360kv motor and a negart 5:1 ple 60 gearbox, its going to be 12s so output speed will be around 3200 rpm, any advice would be great, also i found these propellers on ebay, check them out www.ebay.com/itm/311557617780 im not sure which pitch and diameter would be best, any idea, thanks keith
