Does anyone used this before or does anyone know what lube is this?
If so, what is the pros and cons of this lube?

Oh yeah, this lube was delivered to me together with my Valk 3. It's silicone based, and I wanted to ask something about it:
When I flew back home from China, I had the lube in my backpack, and when I next used the lube, the silicone share had seperated from the rest (the liquid share). Can someone please tell me what happened there and how to fix that?
And to your question, this lube is a little viscose to me, although I haven't used anything besides Maru lube and GAN lube, it gives the cube control while it still keeps its speed, it lets the cube feel pretty smooth. I used it on the Valk (it was delivered with it, so why not), and it was less crunchy than before applying it to the cube.
Maybe a con is that the silicone can seperate from the liquid, I don't know why, maybe it was just happening with mine because of the high altitude of the plane and the resulting lower pressure or so...(?) But maybe someone more expierienced than me knows better.

Hey, So my local hobby shop sells Team Associated lube (shock and diff oil), and I was curious what weights equal Traxxas 10k, 30k, 50k? Also, would shock oil be preferred over diff oil, or vice versa? Thanks everybody!

I have a Gan Air SM but I'm not sure how to set it up to get a smooth and effortless feel while still being controllable and not locky. I have All the premium lubes available and I also have weight 5. If you have a good setup, please help

Clean out all the lube you have so far (You hav a lot EVANNAN!). Weight 5 the core, and DNM and Silk the tracks and pieces. That should do the trick.

silk on the core will evaporate a lot faster than a heavier lube, so you'll have to do it again pretty soon.

I think this would be a good One answer question thread. How to set up X man Bell Pyra M? Smooth and fast. Thanks.
