Was gonna start filming clips for the next movie when what do you know?! It snowed about 4 inches! Straight from 60 degrees one day to 15 the next and 4 inches of snow.

So water proofing was necessary. I just wrapped the servo and receiver in plastic wrap and made a little dome of plastic wrap over the ESC and motor that went over the roll bar.

After that, filming proceeded as awesome. Snow Ruts show off the Revo's fast-reacting suspension really well (definitely gonna do some slo-mo) and the 'ol pond was frozen over with 3 inches of ice, making for some good drift action. I was actually able to get up to full speed on the ice before having to initiate a high-speed drift so as not to slide out of the pond. One more run and I should have enough clips for a short little movie.

On another note: still looking for another Revo roller.
