Servos Maintenance

Is it necessary and if so how often should I lube the gears?

recently sold my goblin with roughly 60 flights on it.
the kts servos I’ve kept for my next Heli but I was wondering if I should replace the grease on the gears before I installed them on the next Heli.

I'd pop the tops off of the servo's and look to see if the lube they came with is still there in sufficient amounts or not... If not, Abu Garcia makes a good fishing reel lube that contains PTFE that should do the trick and is safe on plastics also.

Only 60 flights on the servos? They`re fine...just install them in your next helicopter. I have servos that have hundreds of flights on them, and they still work like they did when I got them. I never take my servos apart unless I strip a gear.
