A technique I copied from one of the nitro gurus was to drain the tank of nitro fuel and fill with FAI 0%, so just oil and methanol. I use 20% Tecnhiplate. I will fire the motor with the glow plug for 30seconds so all the nitro is burnt and flushed with the methanol/oil mix. Then do a similar pickle mentioned above. Bearings last a long time and no corrosion inside the motor.If you don't have easy access to 0%, you can order from John Otto at Technology hobbies or I am sure Jerry and others can do the same.
