I have a new gimbal bearing to install. I've read the manual, but being a novice, it isn't specific enough for me. I see that I need to grease the area before installation, but what about the bearing itself? Does a new gimbal bearing need to be greased before installation, or do you simply line up the carrier grease hole and grease from the external fitting?
If there's a how-to on gimbal installation that I missed, please direct me. Otherwise, please help with any steps of this install you can. Thanks in advance!
