lol... funny you say that... dont do it... i cooked my 21.5 novak motor... some say yes... some say no... but i cant justify 80bucks for a new one lol...

Its been wet alot doesnt seem to affect it other than the front bearing washed out and got noisy. I cleaned and regreased it straightened it right out.
The radio is ballooned, the esc has a rubber gasket as does the sensor wire plug.
The thing about brushless is the only contact the rotor has is with bearings on either end, not that brushed motors are bothered by water either.
Just electronics and the end bell is sealed as far as I know.
