After winter maintenance?

Hi everyone, I just started getting into nitro trucks last spring/summer and I love it. But since last fall I havn't ran them so they have just been sitting around. Is there anything I should do maintenance wise so I can get back to bashing.

After run oil or even some basic Sewing machine oil.

Or if you strip everything down to the bone you can store it Dry as long as everything is Clean as a whistle.
