Boom Racing Equipment

[SniperBuck1]

I was looking at the boom racing receiver box (Aluminum) and was wondering how good it is and is it waterproof

I heard it goes boom, when you use it for your receiver.

Based on the pictures, the Boom Racing receiver box does not look waterproof because of the hole where the wires enter/exit, and there is no visible O-rings or seals anywhere. However, for around $10 depending where you get them, Traxxas receiver boxes work fine for me. I have been using 2 Traxxas receiver boxes for a few months now on my SCX10, and I have submerged them in mud and water and ran them in snow and they are still waterproof. I put lots of marine grease around the large blue o- ring and on the foam where the wires enter/exit, and it seems to hold up in water.

Boom goes the dynamite!

Balloons work well and are really cheap and light.
