|  need ideas how to waterproof rooster esc
Im new to this waterproofing thing. Did the stock axial esc before with liquid tape and it ran fine until I got this rooster crawler esc. Can anybody give me ideas how to do this. I know liquid tape, balloon, or even that dip. How can i make sure I dont mess this up can anybody show pics fo theirs would be great. Its a Novak rooster crawler esc it looks more complicating then the stock axial ones so thought id ask questions and get ideas first.

water-resistant, go ahead and use it in damp/rainy conditions waterproof, go ahead and submerge the thing makes sence? maybe someone who has ran theirs underwater and it still works will chime in and say its "waterproof" but I wouldnt trust his word. | |

Open the case fill it with di electric grease that you get from Autozone for $4 and then close it back up and you never have to worry about it again. I use it in all of my esc's and servos and I have had my scaler 3' under water before. Also use it in your receivers.

Thanks for all those inputs. Yeah I read it was "water-resistant" but I dont think it waterproof. I tried running it in the rain and its just did fine during and after I ran it. But im thinking of dipping in the mud and all the good stuff so waterproofing is a must.

Would putting silicon sealant on the terminal boards hurt, help, or not change this thing's water resistance?
