Epoxy resin works for my Kontronik Jazz ESC just well enough :P

I'd be interested to know how well it stands up under heat. Does it just melt again, or will it stay on the FET's of an ESC real good during operation?

Brijar!!!

Some parts inside a laptop get pretty hot, like the CPU and VGA cards. Unless the one they showed hadn't been running very long then I would say it's OK with heat.

You could always shoot them an email.

Interesting.
Sounds similar to Corrosion-X.

^ Yeah that's great stuff too. I think what sets this apart is that it utilizes vacuum deposition, which allows it to coat even the INSIDES of electronic equipment.

That stuff looks great! It just may be a PITA to send them all your electronics... I would mainly want my receiver and ESC waterproofed though. I don't think anything else is needed. I am sick of wrapping the whole chassis in saran wrap when driving in the snow... :lol:

I have one of these - Great for kids... you don't have to worry about it at all...

Yep same here , i would just do my esc and reciever

Doesn't Castle already use something like this on their boards? I know for a fact that some kind of film is covering the board of my Max controllers.

Took apart my EVX2 the other day. It is filled with some kind of rubberized epoxy. Covers everything but the power button and heatsinks.
I think the MM boards might have some kind of coating on them. I had to solder the power switch points together and it seemed to have fried some stuff on the srface that wasn't flux.
