Good work, but I dont like what u do with the ESC.
When is closed in the box u prevent cooling and may overheat some day.
The best way is to disassemble your ESC, and protect it with clear lacquer spray, at least 6-7 coats, even under the radiator!
than the water can not stop affect you "thumbsup"

Thx for reply. Regarding the ESC, im doing this for a long time usualy i always have DSYS esc and now i go for the Robitronic. Never happend to overheat with plastidip on it. So im fine woth this solution and can "swim" under water. :D
