Lube Preferences

I just feel like this should be a thread, and cause I wanted to ask a lube related question.

What lube goes well with lubest pro in an RS3M 2020? Like one that would help speed up a little bit but add a bit of controllability? I'm thinking Solar, but is there a better option?

Feel like this is a question best asked in the One Answer Lube Thread or whatever it's called.

I lubed my RS3M 2020's with traxxas 10k deep in the tracks, and mystic and DNM on the pieces. (Make sure not to let the mystic and DNM go in the tracks because it makes it feel weird)

which one there is used for control?

 

[PetrusQuber]

Traxxas 10K though it’s not as good for solely control as 30 or 50

The traxxas 10k. I thought this setup would make my cube way too fast but it actually made it a nice speed while staying very controllable.

ooh nice. do you think i could use the lubest pro over the mystic?

I have no idea what lubest pro is but you could try it! Worst case scenario you have to spend 15-30 minutes cleaning your cube out.

Just remember, DO NOT overlube it. It makes the rs3m2020 feel horrible.

lubest pro is basically just a high visc lube. very good for price. 20ml for £2.50

I'm not sure how well that will work, traxxas 10k was the higher visc lube I used and I put mystic and DNM as the low visc lubes to give it a nice feeling and speed it up.

do you think 30k would be better?

 

[Owen Morrison]

do you think 30k would be better?

If you mean instead of the 10k I don't think it will be worse, but I don't think it would be better. It will probably be a little bit slower than with the 10k.

 

[TheSlykrCubr]

I don't think it will be worse, but I think it would be better.

Ah yes, english.

 

[Owen Morrison]

Ah yes, english.

lol I meant to say I don't think it will be worse but I don't think it will be better.

what do you think would be good to add a little more control?
