Waterproof steering servos

[DioptricStraw]

I want to make the lower half of my AX10 waterproof. i tried to make the old spectrum servo i had waterproof by packing it with di-electric grease and using an o-ring. it didn't work for very long. i am now using traxxas 2075 waterproof servos and they are great but the torque really sucks. any recommendations for a high torque waterproof servo.

isn't the traxxas servo just a waterproof case? have you looked into swapping the innards from another servo into the traxxas case?

I haven't tried that, what servo would would be swapable internally/what is a good strong servo to use?

The majority of nice servos have o-rings where the case halves connect and around the screws that bolt them together.....which is basically what the traxxas servo has.
