How to lubricate and maintain high-speed bearings of drones?

1.Keep clean after use

Any object that flies in the air will accumulate dust, insects, and pollutants. So it is necessary to remove the dirt on the surface of the drone. It is crucial to clean the motor regularly to prevent any blockage or overheating. Use a soft brush or compressed air to remove dirt, dust and other particles from the motor housing and propellers.
2. Lubricate moving parts
Lubrication is essential for the smooth operation of your drone motor. Before choosing a lubricant, consult the manufacturer's guide to determine which lubricant is right for your drone motor lubricant.
Or you can consider FRTLUBE B100B multi-purpose drone lubricant. FRTLUBE lubrication experts have developed drone motor lubricant that can be used for a variety of models based on the working conditions and performance characteristics of various drones. It uses a high-performance 100% synthetic oil as the base oil, combined with the industry's latest formulation technology, and is specially designed to cope with the high speed and high performance of drone bearings.
B100B drone lube offers excellent anti seize property to reduce friction ,with good lubricity, excellent long lasting and distinguished dry run characteristics.
Product | Appearance | Base Oil | TempRange (℃) | Application |
---|---|---|---|---|
B100B | Yellow liquid | Synthetic oil | -40~220℃ | Drones Lubricant / shaft rotating pivot / Remote control vehicles |
Generally recommended to apply a small amount of drone lube to the motor bearings , universal joints and rear arm shaft parts . However, be careful not to over-lubricate, as over-lubrication will attract dust and dirt, which may do more harm than good.
3.Comprehensive benefit analysis
Once a drone fails or is damaged in the air, it can easily lead to catastrophic consequences. The propellers need to be replaced at the manufacturer's recommended intervals.
Check that the propellers spin freely (disconnect the battery first). If they do not spin easily, you may need to remove them from the unit to determine the problem .
4.Final Words
Regular maintenance of your drone motor using drone lubricant is essential for optimal performance, long life, and safe operation. With these basic maintenance tips, you can keep your drone's motor in good condition. Your drone motor will ensure smooth flights and enhance your flying experience.
