Watch using WD40 on the plastic stuff. OK to use from time to time, but if

you want to keep the motors lubed, hit a hobby shop or Amazon and look

for something geared for model trains. Believe it or nor not, even common

household vegetable oil works GREAT. Apply with a Q-Tip! OK to use WD40

first, then regular maintenance with cooking oil, won't harm the parts!

Thank you for your speedy reply, Redfive. Should I also do the same to the other motors, for maintenance sake? And what about the gears?

I noticed first that my tried and trusted S107G stopped going backwards, only hovers and flies foward. Then I noticed that the tail rotor did not spin at all, as if it had no power; checked the two wires leading back to the tail motor, they are properly soldered on.

So what should I do? Get a new tail motor?

Thanks for help.
