Xi5 General Maintenance

Recommended Posts

Anyone have any info or thoughts on scheduled maintenance/upkeep on the Xi5? If I remember, the only thing I read in manual was to lube the locking mechanism. There has to be some other general upkeep I should do.

Think Finchaser posted something about sealing up the edges of the Pinppint module. I need to do that.

 

Thanks

Yeah that was me.

I pull the prop regularly and take side plates off and clean grease stow mechanism like manual says.  Keep the SS  pins that stick out of the gear box polished clean and put a very thin coat of grease on them, believe it or not it wont stow if these go dry.  Found that out one day and in a pinch took my fingers and rubbed my nose and wiped it on the pins to get it to work!  I polish them with flitz occasionally now.
