My friend, if you know that grease wears out (badly) with the tearing action of the gears and thins out with heat (a bit - remember we're talking silicon grease here) then why ask???

in terms of thinning out "after a few batteries", given that a 3200 lipo lasts 20mns with a 9T delta brushless, and that typical running temperatures for this toy are sub-zero, I usually only run one batt at a time befor I feel the urge to go back inside...

But I would think that it doesnt take "a few batteries" for that grease to heat up - I would think that after 30s of turning action it should be pretty dang warm inside, but then again I never felt the need to dissassemble the diffs in the snow right in the middle of a pack.
