waterproof servos

[tim the toolman]

This has probably been covered before, but what is the best, most powerful waterproof servo out there? Or can my regular servos be made waterproof. I mean really waterproof, as in being submerged for a few minutes without worrying about ruining a $100 servo. Thanks, and yes I should search, but for some reason I don't have much luck with searching

Platsi dip has worked for me. Here's an old howto I created for how to dip your servos
