Ive heard of guys using liquid tape, or plasti dip or something. I too would like to water proof my esc, also servo and the reciever box. Good luck |

I used plastic dip, and it works great. I waterproofed my receiver, ESC and my servo with it. On my esc I put some elec tape on any open holes and masked off the heatsink, hung it by its wires and dipped it in. Two to three coats with drying time in between. When its half way dry you will want to press the bubbles out. the outer shell won't be sticky but the inside hasn't cured yet, allowing you to need everything into place. servo the same way, just when it is halfway dry, press your servo horn on all the way and it will make a perfect seal. when it's dry just use and exacto knife to trim off the unwanted rubber around the servo horn. Before putting the servo horn pack with marine grease and you're done. you can't dip anything, just remember, all it is is rubber and can be peeled off. And with it being rubber, my buttons on my ESC still work

| Re: GSRCC Scale Endurance #4 I put all my electronics into balloons, zip tie the openings shut and liquid tape the opening a couple of times. Works great and it's cleaner than dipping all your stuff into anything...
