Waterproof project - 12.03.2008, 11:25 PM

So my buddies and I decided we would build some scale vehicles, that we could drive anywhere. So we figured that we would waterproof all of the electronics and make them so that we could drive completely submerged.

My platform is the tamiya f350 high lift. I replaced the 3 speed tranny with a very cut down pede tranny and a reverse mounted motor. Currently running a stock silver can motor on 2s lipo thru a tamiya esc.

Used plier handle coating (pasti-dip) on the servo, lipo and esc. Put the rec in a balloon, and there you have it. I still need to pack the axles with grease, and make a electronics tray under the hood.

I will get some pics for you guys. Basically the only cusom parts are the tranny and the motor mount.
