I have a v2Cx with 4 lift pins where the wings connect to the fuselage.

These get cleaned and greased with white grease on each assembly.

I'm noticing that the grease under the lift bearings gets squeezed out in flight. (Looks like maybe metal to metal contact.)

Is there a preferred grease to use there.
Maybe something with a graphite or moly fill?

Try Aeroshell Grease 33. Don't get it on your clothes though - the properties that make it a good grease also make it difficult to get out of fabrics if you make a mess.

Just get some spray-on silicone lube - it really doesn't matter what you use (if everything is aligned you don't need any lube, just clean the grease off of the pins). Certainly don't use anything that is messy, i.e. stains your clothes.
