Looks like you had a good time. Hope she's still runnin'! Even the life of cheap electronics may be worth extending with a balloon...? |

oh boy did i have fun! im now making a waterproof case made from a airtight small food container, the servo actually died at one point, (got completly submerged) but got better again after about 15min under the sun. Towerpro (around $12 usd) sure makes tough servos.. my electronics suits me well, so i think it deserves better taking care of |

Welclome! Nice place to run you have there. I haven't done any waterproofing either. I don't really need it as I never go in any water deeper than 5-6", scale depth water. Plus having a water resistant servo and ESC helps. You don't see any 1:1 rigs completely underwater to the roof anyways, unless they made a pretty bad miscalculation |
