For a winter snow bashing setup I am using a Mtronics ESC. They are waterproof out of the box. For the batteries I just use saran wrap and do a good job wrapping the lipos up. The servos are listed as ''water resistant'' so I just dont worry about it. I'm not driving it under water. It just get splashed. For the receiver the old fashioned balloon works the best IMO. I just dont worry about the motor. But when Im done running I give it a shot of motor cleaner to get the water out and then a drop of light oil on the bearings.

I have a friend who uses dip sealant on the servo also. Works well, but it looks like a PITA if you want to clean it up.


I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...


Silent...But Deadly
