Conformal coating maybe what he was thinking of. We used to use it when pelt cooling a CPU for overclocking. The Pelt would cause sever condensation in the CPU socket so it needed water proofing. It comes in many forms from dipping to spray. http://www.procooling.com/index.php?...s&disp=44&pg=1 |

what about the axles though. if you have bearings won't they rust or at least stop rolling smoothly? or do most people keep the stock bushings for underwater use?

| Make sure you pack the axles with plenty of grease. Water wont stay were grease is! As a precaution, I would pack a little dielectric grease in the servos to. Both the gear and the electronic side. Also oil the wheel bearings. Other than that, it sounds like you already have everything else figured out. Cant wait to get my truck back together so I can go swimming too! |
