Lonewolf039 · **Brushless in the snow? -** 12.22.2007, 10:52 PM

I recently picked a nib Twin Force and have been having a blast with it in the snow.

The stock Kyosho 550 motors had pretty good power with a pair of intellect 4200 bats, but I blew a brush holder today, which fried one of the motors.

Now my question is, who all is running a brushless motor in a basher in the snow? I would like to go brushless, but don't want to destroy the motor if it can't take the abuse. I am picking up a pair of Great Planes s-600 motors tomorrow to make due, and hopefully after x-mas, will be getting an 8XL to go with the MM I have sitting around. So what all can I do to make the motor snow proof, or at least snow resistant
