I have been told that boiling plastic parts e.g. wishbones will make them less brittle.
Is this true?
Does it work on fibre reinforced nylon parts like TC3 wishbones and hub carriers?
I keep breaking them while racing indoors.
Thanks.

A old timer out-of-the-hobby mentioned this at work,
I'll ask him when I see him or you could search "boil" in some other forums.

Yes, it makes them a bit more flexible. I do it on all of my kits now. Sice the boil trick the R/C's take more abuse.
