Thanks

Good news Frank...  That's a lot of flying on one bearing.  Well worth
the extra cost of the SS bearing and time of replacement.

Just last weekend, I finally had to replace the Boca SS bearings that I
put into my OS 1.40 RX before the engine was ever run. I noticed the
bearing roughness after flight number 431. Based on advice from so many
Pattern pilots, I never even tried the stock bearings.
 
The fuel was 15% Magnum and the engine was run dry after every session.
I used Mobil 1 as an after run oil each time. The rear bearing had both
seals removed and the front bearing had the rear seal removed but kept
the front seal of course. The front bearing seal was metal, not rubber
so I don't know if Mobil 1 would affect rubber.
 
Regards,
Frank Granelli
