I believe the Mamba Max will work great for you. If I'm not mistaken, it is water proof or at least water resistant.

Yeah, the MM ESC has a coating on the circuit board, but the USB contacts and all the wiring is exposed. Also, the SM components aren't protected either from what I could tell.

What are the SM componets? I've thought about using the MM in snow. I would put a piece of tape over the USB Port. Then after word open it up and put it on a air vent to dry.

Look at the Mtroniks ESCs. They are 100% waterproof due to their design.

I think a piece of tape won't put you there. it won't make a waterproof controller.

i would personally make some kind of box with the fins sticking out..
