Hi,
I'm using my i1 for surf videos down in Puerto Rico, surf came up yesterday and is going off.
There has been a mist (marine layer) above the water, almost 40' high.
I've been waiting for it to burn off, but it hasn't completely.
I've flown 5 batteries, no problems, have been staying as high as possible to still use the footage (40' or so)
I've been wiping the aircraft down as much as possible, with a damp rag, fresh water.
Is there anything I can do for the motors? Any spray that's ok?
I haven't had any problems, but I can see the screw heads on the connectors on the arms are showing signs of corrosion, I plan on using ACF-50 on a rag to clean these and most of the frame.
The motors aren't showing me any signs of trouble, bearing play is fairly tight and equal on all 4, the resistance to spin by hand seem to be very similar and no noticeable changes from very early on in it's life.
It's life began over these same waves, but will less marine layer.
As usual, any and all help will be greatly appreciated.
I'm so lucky this forum exists and the members have such extensive knowledge.
I don't know what I'd do without this resource.
