Has anyone cryo treated there cases I've seen some talk about doing it with other quads. I'm guessing you would do it mostly for the bearings?? I don't see why it would hurt anything.

I dont see it hurting anything, but not sure you would get allot of return for your money on cases because they have been very durable over the years, spending money on the gears would be a better investment IMO

seems a treating process would work better on moving parts

Moving isnt the key, rather miving parts that contact other moving parts. Gears for example, the intent is to limit stress and wear by molecularly balancing the part therefore reducing the llikelihood of failure

thats what i ment. moving parts that are subject to wear. cases are stationary
